About this episode

This episode discusses the Apostle Paul's suffering and the concept of sufficient grace in the face of life's challenges.

2 Corinthians 12:1-10: Even the Apostle Paul suffered with his “thorn in the flesh.” Despite his prayers, God let the pain remain. Sometimes as believers we conclude that God owes us an easy life or an easy victory. We, like Paul, must learn that God is God, and He uses all of our experiences to shape us in the likeness of His Son.
