Summary

Suffering is a universal human experience that is difficult to embrace. Jeff Cavins explores how suffering can be a transformative and redemptive experience when we unite it with Christ's suffering. Drawing on Scripture verses and the teachings of St. John Paul II, Jeff provides deep insight and encouragement on how we can find deeper meaning in our suffering.

This is show 414, The Value of Suffering.

Thank you for joining me again this week, where we're going to talk about, we're going to talk

0:28.7

about suffering today, but we typically talk about discipleship, Bible study, and growing as a
