About this episode

Pastor Ben discusses how enduring suffering and loss can lead to darkness, but healing is found in the community of God.

As Job begins to endure the suffering of His loss, he struggles with the darkness he feels. On this snowy Sunday, Pastor Ben teaches us that loss and pain pull us away from God's love and community. But healing comes as the family of God gathers. Darkness can lead you to light and life, and you can find rest in Him. We will struggle with the darkness we feel. (v1-11) We will be tempted to question our existence. (v11-20) We will feel trapped and long for relief. (v20-26)
