The Painful Reality of Sanctification

Living Waters
Inspire & Equip, LivingWaters.com

What is the purpose of the trials and hardships God allows in our lives? In this discussion, the guys explore the value of sanctification and why becoming more like Christ should matter more to us than comfort, security, or the approval of others.

Through illustrations of a child receiving medical care and a sculptor shaping stone, they consider how God uses painful and difficult circumstances to shape His people for their good and His glory. Even when we don’t understand what He is doing, we can trust His goodness and recognize that He is working to make us more like Christ.

This clip is from the Living Waters Podcast, hosted by Ray Comfort, Emeal “E.Z.” Zwayne, Mark Spence, and Oscar Navarro. Join us as we explore hot topics, Christian living, theology, and evangelism. You can listen to the full podcast on all major streaming platforms, and now you can also watch full episodes and stream all our content on Living Waters TV.
