There’s a lot of groaning going on these days. And for good reasons. Wouldn’t it be nice if after becoming a Christian you could apply for asylum in an idyllic country where pain and suffering of every kind was abolished? Sign me up, right? But in fact, the opposite is true—and sometimes it can feel overwhelming to read Scriptures that say things like, “We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God” (Acts 14:22).

In this lesson Patrick Morley helps clarify why there is so much suffering, why you are caught up in it all, and how we have a hope that dwarfs whatever troubles we may have.

Verses referenced in this lesson:

Romans 8:18-27
