466 I'm a Believer Now, What's Next? Life's Trials

It's a common assumption, when one turns to God, commits one's identity to Christ, life should become happier, healthier, more blessed. But commonly the opposite happens. And when life's trials begin to pile on us we tend to, precisely because we've read about miracles and deliverance in the Bible, ask, "why are you doing this to me, God?" When it is prolonged we can think in our hearts, "why is God frowning on me?" We make one-for-ones out of our sufferings. Mark and I talk through the ins and outs of life's trials, what those mean (or don't), and what the book of Job shows us today about our suffering. Come think and laugh with us.
