**Due to technical difficulties, the live audio of Jon's message was not recorded. Watch the VIDEO of Jon sharing his story, in a re-cap of Sunday's service on our Vimeo channel.

Our new lead pastor Jon Ritner shared some of his personal journey of faith and how God has redeemed pain in his past to impact the lives of others. God can use the pain in His followers lives, and redeem it for the benefit of others. Like Jesus, we can "steward our pain" to provide comfort to others, as we ourselves have been comforted.
