May 8, 2026 • Jim Logan
The sermon emphasizes that struggles, though often unwelcome, serve a divine purpose in cultivating Christ-like character within individuals. It cautions against prematurely alleviating the pressures others face, as this can hinder God’s intended work of refinement and repentance, urging instead a reliance on prayer and discernment. The message highlights that present difficulties often stem from past disobedience, and encourages a grateful response to trials, recognizing them as opportunities for spiritual growth and conformity to the image of Jesus Christ, ultimately equipping believers to minister to others.
