Scripture

2 Corinthians 1

About this sermon

Pain can either push you away from God or drive you closer to Him. In this message, Pastor J.D. Greear reminds us that prayer turns the angle of the wind, transforming suffering from something that drives us into despair into something that draws us into God’s arms. You don’t just need relief from your problems. You need resurrection in your problems; and the good news is, that’s what God offers through Jesus. 👉 New to The Summit Church?
