Why do YOU suffer?

from Unfiltered with Matt Farnsworth Hosted by Matt Farnsworth

Matt Farnsworth reflects on how suffering and loss led him to Christ, recovery, and a clearer sense of purpose. He describes losing identity through addiction and recovery, the certainty that Christ holds chosen believers, and the contrast between the narrow gate of faith and the wide, comfortable path of the world. He urges listeners to be decisive, study the Bible, and accept that following the gospel may bring hardship; he also mentions practical resources like his Armor Up app and his book for those seeking help.
