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.

Over the years I have read many books, but there are less than 10 that have impacted me the most and that I can say were defining books for me.
I mentioned in a previous episode that during 2024, I would periodically share each of those books, and today I’m sharing THE book that impacted me the most when it comes to homeschooling.
