Faith Made Real through Suffering // Christine Hoover


Listen Later

"Suffering is where our faith is made real... And anything you see of enduring faith in me, that's God. That's his strength in my weakness."

— Christine Hoover

Today's Episode: Listen in as Natalie talks with Bible teacher Christine Hoover about how God brought her through the most difficult year of her life. She shares how she learned to rely on God's strength in her weakness, to relinquish control, to accept the help and love of others, and to believe God through even the darkest times. More than that, she walk us through how she heard God's tender, faithful voice speaking to her in 2 Corinthians. You won't want to miss her amazing story!
