God's Heart for Suffers | Faith Under Fire: The Ministry of Elijah

Faith Under Fire, a sermon series that focuses on The Ministry of Elijah. Today's sermon is based on 1 Kings 17:17-24 given by Dir. of Family Life, Cody Balfour. The sermon teaches that suffering is not a punishment for sin and that God’s Kingdom is not built on merit. While sin can have consequences, personal suffering is not necessarily our fault. In the passage, we see deep grief and shaken faith, yet God turns out dead ends into doorways. He is a Good Shepherd who stays present, God rebuilds our shattered faith. Let God be God in our lives—believing that He is working toward good and is willing to restore what feels shattered, if we allow Him to.
