God Uses Trials for Our Good

In this episode of Anchored in the Word with Dave, Dave Jenkins explains how God uses trials and suffering to strengthen the faith of believers, produce endurance, deepen dependence on Christ, and conform Christians into the image of Jesus Christ.

Drawing from James 1:2–4, Romans 5:3–4, 1 Peter 1:6–7, and John 16:33, this episode offers biblical encouragement for Christians facing hardship, discouragement, suffering, or uncertainty.

Trials are never meaningless in the hands of a sovereign God. Through suffering, God matures His people, strengthens their trust in Christ, and teaches them to rest in His promises.
