Why Does God Call Us to Suffer?

from Life Over Coffee · host Rick Thomas

The situational difficulties we face are the contexts that reveal our hearts, which is how God purifies our faith and obedience.

I want to take you on a journey through the New Testament, laying out how God chooses life’s foolish and weak things to confound the wise. Every dinged and dented jar of clay that God uses understands this “boasting in weakness worldview,” but for many of our brothers and sisters, it continues to be a mental challenge to shift from their former manner of life (Ephesians 4:22).
