WHY DO I SUFFER?
Sep 20, 2026 • Aaron Swensen
Why hasn't God taken your pain away? It’s easy to say Jesus is all you need when life is going your way. It’s an entirely different story when you're stuck in a brutal season that simply won't end.
In this message out of Philippians 1, we’re looking at the uncomfortable truth about suffering: your pain isn't random. If you feel trapped in a situation you can't control, God might not be rescuing you from it because He's actively doing something through it—both in you, and in the people watching how you handle it.
Here is what it actually looks like to stop just trying to escape your circumstances, and start finding the purpose inside them.
