February 2nd, 2025 - Suffer Like Jesus

Suffer Like Jesus   Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor   The unfortunate reality of living in a world broken by sin is that we absolutely will experience brokenness. Suffering and experiencing trials is guaranteed for all.  But there is good news. James directs us to be full of joy in the midst of our trials. This strange statement directs us to the new reality that we can only have in Jesus. The Gospel is the Good News that shows us that suffering isn't the end of the story. Today we see the hope that can be found in suffering like Jesus.   Philip Yancey: Where is God when it hurts Dr. Paul Brand:  The gift of pain CS Lewis:  The problem of pain  and    Surprised by joy Craig Groeschel:  Hope in the Dark Victor Frankle:  Man's search for meaning Joni Earekson Tada:  A place of healing   Click on the links below for additional Cascade Church resources.
