Testing
In the book of James, we’re told to consider it pure joy when we face trials and testing. Yet our natural response is often to ask: Why me? Why now? How long will this last? How do we get through it? This week, we’re joined by Pastor Dan Lian, who brings a timely and encouraging message on testing, and how trials, when viewed through the lens of faith, can actually lead us to pure joy. James 1:2 (NLT) "Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy."
