  • Suffering and Sovereignty (4 part series with PDF outline) | CJ Mahaney | Sovereign Grace Ministries | MP3 During times of suffering, the critical issue is not whether we understand — it's knowing that God does, and that he truly works all things for our good.
  • Finding God | Tim Keller | MP3 Seasons of spiritual dryness and disillusionment are inevitable in life, and may derail your faith. They don’t seem to fit with a just and holy God. Psalm 42 offers a prescription for your soul when it seems impossible to feel close to God and sense his lovingkindness.
  • Praying Our Tears | Tim Keller | MP3 Suffering is inevitable, and we should always expect tears. But by investing our tears we can not only grow from them but eventually find joy through them. In praying our tears, we remember God's grace, behold the cross and find assurance in glory yet to come.
  • Praying Our Fears | Tim Keller | MP3 Anxiety is a deep fear that threatens your sense of self. But we must obey Christ in times of hardship, and place our hope in Christ's sacrifice on our behalf.
  • Cross - The Way to Endurance | Tim Keller | MP3 No one knows better than Jesus that life is full of suffering. What does it mean to rejoice in our sufferings, or even grow from them? There is only one thing on which you can build your life and not be shaken – your love for him and his love for you.
  • Born into Hope | Tim Keller | MP3 We need a living hope to get through life and endure suffering. A living hope enables us to have both sorrow and joy. Our living hope is an inheritance achieved for us by Christ.
