Long Suffering & the Call to Patiently Endure

Ep 7 ft. Melinda Nell. In this episode, we discuss the outworkings of our theology of suffering. Melinda shares the wisdom she has gained in walking with the Lord through her own various seasons of suffering. Grab your coffee & sit down with a notepad and pen because you will definitely want to take notes! A few questions covered in this episode: What does suffering reveal in us? Have we made comfort/security an idol? How can we be content in all things? If our circumstances never change, who do we find God to be? How should we pray in the midst of our suffering? books referenced: I'm Praying for You: 40 Days of Praying the Bible for Someone Who is Suffering: Nancy Guthrie: 9781913896256: Amazon.com: Books [https://www.amazon.com/Im-Praying-You-Someone-Suffering/dp/1913896250/ref=sr_1_12?adgrpid=1332608655731186&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CkTtBX0BfbEeGFhICQN8vjuQZryKAXMT_e8tTmPNvXRu7z8mATSOf4vpmmextFbI-L4T0Y0DdBACg3XAtGDDzKEX45RLdtlN7T8BsR4zJLZVwi1yyL18TdMl5X5ElbUeMkAz-zHwLPA2jTVbWZLfKHNnhN915S6WrvWnchirdAZdNk2wASSXRLEVoAffhQzTdTQHy9OdeImjBWY5Tn1tsW_-dsRe2zfjZYsxAMXm8BnF9nzbT2behxTr0-M8DJz2aaOCOU1r0Eaoxr6_D3gvjX0et6tA70j7RtQHZ1pZ3XU.qquoh0TW86TUdmeZI7i1djJHWsB5pLYkpeCDxMy4ciI&dib_tag=se&hvadid=83288280092195&hvbmt=bp&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=76410&hvnetw=o&hvqmt=p&hvtargid=kwd-83288377813339%3Aloc-190&hydadcr=22562_13494426&keywords=books+by+nancy+guthrie&qid=1716184255&sr=8-12] Suffering Is Never for Nothing: Elliot, Elisabeth: 9781535914154: Amazon.com: Books [https://www.amazon.com/Suffering-Never-Nothing-Elisabeth-Elliot/dp/1535914157/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3AX83XVKCLIB3&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.nNXqBIILrEmHEae_psteaSZhx74pQAnD4bwDtJN6TvpdR-BNlLXdgVyg2ix0FHAbuBK8coQIq6pylKTDp_NJW_ETJrIdz3Y10Sk1lHW2Q94S3AzLjqJByCUTJuv8e4iOuQgn96t1o8kqvmISeNNiAnIuHupOLUJvnL46xx_Ezl79_m5bkBivLFvRV20edoq8J7mHfGMMZbmjuIgrTqWjAeU5Lu4DHnEoaU2VSgH8U4I.vI-D7X-1xCsY_UHWTKaG7NoOS0PQn3J5DH8UVMiVT7U&dib_tag=se&keywords=elisabeth+elliot+suffering&qid=1716184312&sprefix=elisabeth+elliot+suffering%2Caps%2C116&sr=8-1] Blessed: Experiencing the Promise of the Book of Revelation: Guthrie, Nancy: 9781433580208: Amazon.com: Books [https://www.amazon.com/Blessed-Experiencing-Promise-Book-Revelation/dp/1433580209/ref=sr_1_1?crid=39VZ0YBPMQUL8&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.G4xC7tr7qtq2a7-AogzVabEe6Zou49rmAp7WjGGZXySOvYxTzM0Jk_zj_cepAGMrtja7eHmEzVUp2HRMHU6VIk0xABCELnsuShsBE8xhjFfLHLM3RnRkIsvrQUPdWjfR7dt59iye-68syWQEElRVxhZ0QT2BQWpGr2Fq00aFG7BbUUnIFa4y2gg7z_3IZ5vJzC0E3Byex-0CQ6CEOxGQ591cGMoToe4Cfrh8c50zwqo.GcqVUwziaSbiR_eBuZSIpSi5TgGa5H71fcTEC1NO0iw&dib_tag=se&keywords=blessed+nancy+guthrie+book&qid=1716184343&sprefix=blessed+n%2Caps%2C105&sr=8-1] mentoring resources: Growing Together: Taking Mentoring beyond Small Talk and Prayer Requests (The Gospel Coalition): Kruger, Melissa: 9781433568015: Amazon.com: Books [https://www.amazon.com/Growing-Together-Mentoring-Coalition-Initiatives/dp/1433568012/ref=sr_1_1?crid=NNNOCB51KCSN&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Vs9e37d9HZrCocqEvTZOdwCTIO-3iquLq1alcvYy3hiPfV5ql20hXTie0P-9RWB7yuhc_nrbXdLYzolOWJTqdsIyWWJpIXh7BjgkzH5C8UPyetcrfX0LJKMcLr4MtM7B0e1tHUXv3LJlJngNpC8khE0xsVdZUETIIn1a7JkUdDmz0gI2-f0c6iuS75AmfR2cHaaU4fn3xAjFUkk-25EqIV46HdbjPcp7mIuQQufZQRI.wdaQ9YYSe6zTn1b6ips_0l8hkC7iWfolLd9G9HagR-U&dib_tag=se&keywords=growing+together+melissa+kruger&qid=1716184360&sprefix=growing+tog%2Caps%2C116&sr=8-1]

The Theology of Suffering

Episode 6 ft. Corey Fontan, Kim Fontan and Andrew Black. In this episode, two pastors and two pastor's wives come together to discuss what the bible has to say about suffering. Should we expect suffering as children of God? Does God being "good" and "just" mean that He should withhold suffering from those He loves? How did people in the bible handle suffering? How did they speak of God in the midst of their suffering? What role does satan really play in our suffering? We covered it all.
