There are two ways to wonder\u2026that\u2019s why we\u2019ve called this sermon and the series we'll be preaching the next few weeks\u2026the Paradox of Wonder. One definition of wonder is to stand in awe. Another definition is to speculate\u2026to question. People don\u2019t normally talk about suffering and resurrection in the same breath but they belong together because such is life. The apostle Paul joined these two extremes in his letter to the Philippians. Here\u2019s what he said: Philippians 3:10-11 TLB 10 Now I have given up everything else\u2014I have found it to be the only way to really know Christ and to experience the mighty power that brought him back to life again, and to find out what it means to suffer and to die with him. 11 So whatever it takes, I will be one who lives in the fresh newness of life of those who are alive from the dead
