Season 3, Episode 16- Brutal Reality, Prevailing Hope

Life storms are raging and your strength is quickly diminishing. But as a Christian, you know it’s going to be okay because all things work together for good… right? Join Rick as he closes out a month-long series exploring Biblical beliefs that may not be true by focusing on the idea that all things work together for good, an idea commonly borrowed from Romans 8:23-30. During the program, Rick will introduce the Stockdale Paradox, a methodology of embracing the brutal reality of situations while balancing it with a prevailing hope. Have you joined the Pigs?
