Why Doesn’t God Take Away My Pain?

Hi Reader,

Have you ever prayed for the pain to stop—and heaven stayed silent? That can feel like rejection, or like you’ve done something wrong.

In this week’s 6-minute video, I walk through five truths from Paul’s “thorn in the flesh” (2 Corinthians 12) that show how God listens, sustains, and works in weakness. It’s a short, clear framework to help your faith flourish, not wither, when life hurts.

“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Cor 12:9)

Watch here: Why Doesn’t God Take Away My Pain?

Grace and peace,

NEW Evidence for the Star of Bethlehem? What Christians Should Know Hi Reader, Every Christmas we picture a glowing star leading the Magi — but this week’s news about a NASA scientist proposing that the star is a 5 BC comet has left many Christians wondering: Does a scientific explanation make the Bible’s miracle smaller? Does it make God less powerful? In this 9-minute video, I walk through the new research, explore three biblical ways God works through nature and history, and show why the...

How the Grinch explains the REAL Christmas story Hi Reader, Christmas can feel heavier than we expect. For some of us it brings a quiet ache — the sense of being on the outside, or of not fitting the “picture-perfect” scenes we see around us. But the Bible’s real Christmas story doesn’t ignore that ache — it speaks directly into it. In this week’s short video, I explore three surprising ways the Grinch helps us see what Scripture has been saying all along about rejection, loneliness, and...
