It’s OK to Tell God ‘I Can’t' with Shane Pruitt
Shane Pruitt, his wife, and five kids are all active people with a wide variety of interests and activities. That means Shane, the national Next Gen director for the North American Mission Board, has a lot of insight to share about keeping God at the forefront even when your family’s calendar is full. He and Redeemed director Nate Dewberry discuss priority setting, dealing with grief and loss, and being willing to tell God “I can’t” when the challenges, struggles, and temptations of life become too great to bear.
