How Should Believers Handle Suffering? (Podcast 491)
b"I wanted to take some time to talk about suffering\\xa0because I know many of us are currently experiencing trials and tribulations that could easily undermine our faith and cause us to doubt the sovereignty and goodness of God.\\n\\nSuffering is hard. It can be exhausting and discouraging.\\xa0\\nAs\\xa0believers must have a theology of suffering.\\xa0In other words,\\xa0we must know\\xa0how to respond to suffering\\xa0with faith. To know this,\\xa0we 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.\\nToday, Wes is back to talk about how believers should handle suffering.\\nResources mentioned in today's episode:\\nCTC Math\\nHeritage Defense\\nOur CPS Story\\nThe Excel Camp\\xa0\\nThe Unhurried Homeschooler\\nUnhurried Grace for a Mom\\u2019s Heart\\nThe Four-Hour School Day\\nSubscribe to my monthly email and receive\\xa0access to Unhurried Grace for a Mom's Heart: 31 Days in God's Word\\nInformation on my new book,\\xa0 Raising Boys to Men!\\n\\xa0\\nScripture passages about God's own suffering:\\nJer. 2:5-8\\nIsaiah 43:4-6\\nPs. 56:8\\nPassages about God's purpose for us in suffering:\\xa0\\nJames 1:2-4\\n2 Corin. 12:6-7\\n2 Corin. 12: 8-9\\n1 Peter 1:6-7\\n2 Corin. 4:17\\nHebrews 12:7-13\\n\\xa0\\nOther episodes with Wes:\\nApplying Romans 13 to the Here and Now\\nThe Importance of a Biblical Education\\nThe Biblical Importance of Family\\nRecognizing False Teachers\\nThe Dangers of a Self-Help Culture\\nHow to Find a Biblical Church\\nLet's Talk About Biblical Discipline\\nBiblical Submission: The Hot Potato\\nAre We Living in the Last Days?\\nLiving With Hope When the Church Says Things Are Only Going to Get Worse\\nJesus' Return: Revelation, the Mark of the Beast and the Anti-Christ\\nWhy We Can't Understand Beauty Without Morality\\nListen to Wes' sermons here\\n(Please check out my latest book, The Four Hour School Day: How You and Your Kids Can Thrive in the Homeschool Life on Amazon,\\xa0durendawilson.com, or your favorite bookseller!)"
