God Has Not Abandoned You in the Fire

Why does God allow Christians to suffer? How should believers respond when suffering comes through sickness, loss, persecution, broken relationships, or the ordinary pain of life in a fallen world? In this episode of Take Heart, Cory Wing walks through what Scripture teaches about suffering, God’s sovereignty, persecution, and the presence of Christ in the valley.Looking at Genesis 3, Romans 8, Joseph, the cross of Christ, Psalm 23, Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Stephen, Polycarp, and the persecuted church throughout history, Cory reminds believers that suffering is not evidence that God has abandoned His people.Instead, Christians can endure because Christ is present with them, sovereign over their suffering, and preparing them for eternal glory.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<
