Ep. 21 The Dangers of Idolizing Pain: How It Hinders Our Spiritual Growth and Faith 38:21

15 weeks назад38:21

38:21

In this episode, I dive into the biblical concept of idolizing pain and its detrimental effects on our spiritual lives. By examining the ways in which we may inadvertently make our pain an idol, we can better understand the importance of surrendering our suffering to God and trusting in His plan for our lives. In this episode, we will explore how idolizing pain can lead to distraction from God, hindrance to spiritual growth, impairment of faith, prolongation of suffering, disconnection from others, and a distorted perspective on God. Through this discussion, I aim to encourage you to recognize the significance of releasing their pain and grief to God, allowing for true healing, growth, and the experience of God's peace and joy.
