A Certain God for Uncertain Times (Lesson 05): Count It All Joy
This episode kicks off a two-part message grounded in James 1:1–8, where we explore how an unchanging God shapes our response to a changing, painful world.
Life’s trials come in many forms—loss, temptation, injustice, grief—and while they are never pleasant, they are not pointless. James calls us to count it all joy not because suffering feels good, but because enduring hardship with faith deepens our character, strengthens our trust, and refines our hope.
We reflect on God’s wisdom as the key to perspective—because when life feels zoomed in and unclear, only God sees the whole picture. His wisdom helps us move forward, not backward, and His unchanging nature gives us confidence to stay anchored when the storm is fiercest.
If you’ve been struggling to find meaning in your suffering or stability in your faith, this episode offers practical and spiritual clarity: don’t quit the process, trust God’s goodness, and ask for the wisdom only He can give.
