In this remarkable episode, Ed Holmes knits together last week's message on suffering with the Biblical understanding of comfort. So often we are coming to the God of Comfort to remove all pain and suffering, when Paul reframes this posture in 2 Corinthians: God’s comfort is perseverance and encouragement in the midst of suffering—not simply the removal of pain.
You will be encouraged to grow stronger by trusting God through hardship rather than avoiding, numbing, or withdrawing from community. Also, Ed offers an invitation to not only recognize God’s presence in present struggles, but also to share those stories of His faithfulness with one another.
