In this powerful message, Dave Wall explores the challenging topic of suffering through a Christian lens.

Rather than offering simplistic answers, Dave guides us through three pivotal moments in Jesus's final hours—the Last Supper, Gethsemane, and the Cross—revealing three crucial choices we face in our own suffering: to serve or be sentimental, to seek God or remain stoic, and to stand steadfast or succumb to fear.

Drawing from scripture and personal experience, he shares how suffering can become a signpost pointing us homeward rather than an enemy that defeats us.
