TODAY’S GUEST: Frank Friedman. Author of “Stunned by Grace” and “Finding God in The Gray.” Frank is a Board member of IOM America and President of Our Resolute Hope.
YOUR HOST: Dr. Stephen Phinney. Author of “Nehemiah, The Man & The Legend” and “The End Times, The Brewing Storm.” Stephen is the President and Founder of IOM America, the IM Worldview Institute, Lion of Judah Films, and the IM Online School.
PODCAST TOPIC: Finding God in The Gray. In the midst of our suffering, God’s Grace serves as a beacon of hope. It is a divine comfort that transcends our earthly trials, a testament to the enduring love and mercy of the Creator. Even in our darkest hours, His indwelling Grace illuminates our path, providing strength to endure and faith to persevere through pain and suffering.
Frank & Stephen will explore the reality of the believer’s suffering that can harm or inspire the growth of the believer’s identity in Christ. Frank & Stephen will remind us of our human fragility without tapping into Jesus’s Life, yet it is through God’s Grace that we find our true resilience - because of Jesus’s resilience. For it is written,
‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness’ (2 Corinthians 12:9).
Thus, in our suffering, we are not alone or forsaken, but cradled in the boundless compassion of God’s Grace, through Jesus who lives within you.
