The Better Belief: Part Six
Episode description
As we discussed last week, it is the gentleness of Jesus that makes us great—but sometimes the hand that shepherds us so gently also prunes us with severity. "Suffering produces endurance; endurance produces character, and character produces hope." If it is "for discipline we must endure," and by this we know we are legitimate sons, how do we cling to the goodness of God in the midst of severity? How do we intercede—firmly against sin, but in faithful solidarity with Jesus' eternal purposes? It matters for Jerusalem. It matters for your family. And it matters for you.
