This is it — the final episode in our series on suffering. Dave Scherrer closes by testing an old line against Scripture: pain is inevitable, but is suffering really optional? He clears up two misconceptions we've wrestled with along the way — suffering in silence isn't the answer, and neither is complaining without restraint; honest lament in godly community is the biblical way through. And sorrows should never be wasted, because carried well they produce joy, maturity, and a deeper identification with Christ, the Suffering Servant. Dave lands where the whole series has been pointing: suffering well is ultimately about trusting and glorifying God, and it becomes a quiet, powerful witness to a watching world that our hope in Christ never disappoints.
