Suffering is hard. It can be exhausting and discouraging. 

As believers must have a theology of suffering. In other words, we must know how to respond to suffering with faith. To know this, we have to be taught from the scriptures. Letting our faith impact our suffering changes everything and brings hope in the midst of what could otherwise destroy us.

Today, Wes is back to talk about how believers should handle suffering.
