The truth that rejoicing and suffering can co-exist has been extremely helpful for me to see in God’s Word. Thankful for the Holy Spirit, prayer, and God’s work in and through others to help me learn and then pass it on in this sermon. Very thankful for Tim Keller’s book on suffering, Karen Jobes and Darell Bock’s commentaries on 1 Peter, as well as other helps from Sinclair Ferguson, Kathleen Nielson, Mica Edmondson, Charles Spurgeon, Bishop Leighton, and others. All glory to God!
