About this episode

The episode discusses finding grace and rest through faith, referencing scripture and the thoughts of George MacDonald on suffering.

Scripture Matthew 11:28–30 (NIV) "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Refrain I come as I am and find grace here. Quote George MacDonald, from Unspoken Sermons "The Son of God suffered unto death, not that men might not suffer, but that their suffering might be like His." Hosted on Acast.
