007. Suffering For The Kingdom

The human condition is predestined to experience suffering. We've seen the expression of suffering played out in many different ways throughout history. Some men and women have been able to receive grace, peace, and understanding in their suffering.  For others their suffering only caused more confusion and seemed to be at the fault of some higher power or at least it was an unexplainable lesson in futility. For the Christian, suffering comes with the territory, but it also comes with an invitation to relationship on a higher level, a more intimate level with Jesus Christ. That is not to say that most Christians continue to struggle with understanding their pain. However, the very few Christians who have consented to the process of becoming have gained access to intimacy with God, a call to use their suffering for the good of his Kingdom, and even deeper invitation to living a life dedicated to obedience. Today's episode is on this very topic of suffering with Steve Porter. Steve will dive deep into his experience with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and how he has come to love God more and find a deeper purpose for living.
