If God Loves You, Why Are You Suffering? | 1 Peter 4:12–19 | Sunday, June 14th, 2026

If God is good, why does He allow His people to suffer? It's one of the hardest questions anyone can ask.

In this message from 1 Peter 4:12–19, along with Acts ...14:22 and 2 Timothy 2:11–13, we discover that suffering isn't evidence of God's absence—it can be part of His purpose. The Bible teaches that trials refine our faith, deepen our dependence on Christ, and point us toward the eternal glory that awaits those who remain faithful.

Whether you're facing hardship, grieving a loss, battling discouragement, or simply wondering why life is so difficult, this sermon offers biblical hope and encouragement rooted in God's Word.

Scripture:

1 Peter 4:12–19
Acts 14:22
2 Timothy 2:11–13
