So much of the Christian life is characterised by suffering. We should not be surprised at this given our theological grounding of sin and its impact upon the world and our lives and the paradigm of the cross.
Yet we secretly believe a sort of prosperity gospel and don’t know how to prepare people to suffer.
Eric Ortlund, lecturer in Old Testament and Hebrew at Oak Hill College, will help us see the place of suffering in God’s divine providence and show how we can shepherd people to stand “for a little while longer.”
This seminar was hosted by Daniel Grimwade, FIEC's Director for Yorkshire.
This seminar is from the 2024 FIEC Leaders' Conference held in Blackpool from 4-6 November 2024.
