Dave Scherrer gets unusually personal in this episode, sharing his own long list of "things I wish were different" — years of surgeries and chronic pain, the loss of both parents and his wife's parents in one season, donating a kidney to his wife Susan, and later walking with her through a brain hemorrhage. And yet, Dave says, none of it has ever felt like suffering to him — because of perspective. He turns to the Apostle Paul's own catalog of hardships in 2 Corinthians 11, which Paul called a "momentary light affliction." Perspective is what moves our hardships from complaint to purpose, and gives us strength to persevere. Part three of a series on suffering. Visit us at https://100foldministries.org
