This five-week series explores characters from the Bible who experienced seasons of uncertainty—the “in-between” trials of life. Job, Daniel, Abraham, Paul and the disciples all experienced times of frustration, pain, suffering, and difficult questions. We too experience these difficult times, and it’s vital that even in the midst of hard circumstances the church relies on God to carry us through.
“Someone has said that ‘the Bible is deep enough for a theologian to drown in and yet shallow enough for a child of God to wade in.’ Certainly, it is true that God tutors us, in His Word, on a level that any of His children can understand and benefit from. It doesn’t matter how young or old, or smart or simple, we may be: the Bible has correction for us to take in and refreshment for us to wade in … so let’s wade in!”
