Send Me Questions on Attachment

Suffering in life is inevitable. The Scriptures teach us in John 16:33b that "...In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” Jesus prepares our heart for suffering by making us aware that it is coming, but how do we actually respond when it does come? 

On today's episode, Spencer and I discuss how Christianity in Western culture has had an imperfect or one-sided view of God that has impacted how they view suffering in their lives. Is it all really worth it? Will God really use this for my good? How long do I have to wait to see the Lord's hand in the midst of my suffering? There are a lot of questions that, we as Christians, ask when we're suffering, but Spencer alludes to the fact that we might not know the answer to the "Why?" of our suffering, but it is important that we remain obedient and patient in the process to see God work in our lives. He will change our hearts in the process. 

We also discuss the following topics: 
- The need for both truth and grace
- The reality of suffering
- The purpose of suffering
- Eliminating the tension of suffering and wrestling with God
- How to manage our emotions during suffering 
- Lastly, waiting on God's timing to show us the purpose of suffering
