Habakkuk: Faith Under Fire
Habakkuk teaches us how to move from worry to worship and from fear to faith no matter what our circumstances.
Why is life so hard?
Why is life so hard? The Bible has a lot to say about suffering and trials and the problem of evil. Here are a few places to start exploring answers from Scripture.
08 Jeremiah 20:7-18 Why is life so hard?
We all come to a place at one time or another where we ask the question, “Why is my life so hard? Why do I have to endure this particular problem or experience this pain or go through this situation?” In Jeremiah 20:7-19, we see Jeremiah reach that place. He hits rock bottom and cries out asking, why his life was so hard.
01 Jeremiah 1:1-3 What to do when your country falls apart
The book of Jeremiah is about global national and political crisis, personal crisis and most importantly, the word of the Lord.
All hardship is not harmful
When did we learn that all hardship is harmful, that every unknown is dangerous, and that even the tiniest failure must be avoided? It is a logical conclusion if we alone are responsible for everything, but James would say otherwise.
02 James 1:1-8 Why does God test our faith?
James 1:1-8 is one of the most important passages of the book. It sets the tone, the theme and the foundation for the rest of the letter. If we get this passage wrong, it is like grabbing the salt instead of the sugar. It will change the entire flavor and understanding of the letter.
