Deepening Your Love for Christ (Part 4)

In Times of Suffering

In this final episode of Deepening Your Love for Christ, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the reality of suffering with Biblical authority and Gospel urgency. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 1 and Hebrews 4, he proclaims that Jesus Christ—our High Priest—knows every pain, bears every grief, and walks with His people through every trial. Whether your suffering leads you to a barren, broken, bitter, or better land depends on your response. Will you grow resentful, or will you be refined by the fire? Dr. Youssef urges believers not to waste their suffering but to let it deepen their love for Christ, who suffered for them. This message calls the Church to repentance, surrender, and worship—anchored in the Cross and fueled by the power of the Resurrection.
