When Tragedy Strikes

November 2, 2014Nov 2, 2014Dr. John KingTRUSTJohn- Believe & Have LifeJohn

Listen Transcript

This message focuses on the story of Lazarus and how it illustrates the importance of trusting God during times of tragedy. The speaker emphasizes that even when God seems absent, His wisdom and purpose are at work for His glory. The message encourages believers to trust in God's timing and to remember His compassion and power, especially when facing life's hardships. Ultimately, it reassures that death and suffering do not have the final word for believers, as Christ is the resurrection and the life.

John 11:1-44Romans 8:18-22
