About this episode

Pastor Anthony Lucarini discusses the biblical perspective on suffering and how Christians should respond to trials.

Why does God allow suffering? How should Christians respond when life becomes painful? In this message from 1 Peter 4:12-19, Pastor Anthony Lucarini explores a biblical theology of suffering and helps us discover why Peter tells believers not to be surprised by trials. Instead, suffering becomes a place where God refines our faith, reveals what we truly trust, and prepares us for eternity.
