Jesus Knows the Storm From the Inside
Christian faith does not claim that God watches suffering from a distance. In Jesus, God enters betrayal, injustice, pain, and abandonment. This means that those who suffer are not misunderstood by God. Christ has walked the storm from the inside and remains present with all who endure it.

You Are Not Forgotten
When suffering feels overwhelming and God seems distant, Scripture reminds us that He is near to the brokenhearted. Even in the storm, you are seen, known, and not forgotten.

When the Church Goes Underground
When churches are forced out of public view, faith does not disappear. From the earliest Christians to believers today, going underground has been a faithful and wise way to preserve community, protect one another, and continue following Christ when visibility brings danger.
