Stop Asking "Why Me, God?" (And Ask This Instead) | The Pursuit with James Griffin

from The Pursuit with James Griffin · host crosspointcity

Why does life go crooked, and how should Christians respond when it does? In this episode of The Pursuit, James, Carlos, and Matt unpack what it means to suffer well. Instead of asking “Why me, God?” we’re called to ask, “How can You use this?” The conversation dives into lament, eternal perspective, and the danger of thinking pain is punishment. Through personal stories, biblical wisdom, and practical steps, the guys show how God uses suffering to refine our faith, grow empathy for others, and point us toward the eternal hope we have in Christ.SHOW NOTESThese notes are packed with key insights and scripture to help you know and follow Jesus – https://mycpcc.com/notes145To submit a question, send us a DM on Instagram or Facebook.Crosspoint City Church exists to relentlessly pursue those far from God to help them know and follow Jesus.
