The Genuine Article

 (ID: 2561)

If there is no such thing as a Christian life without trials, what purpose do they serve, and how do we stand the test to receive the crown of life? Alistair Begg teaches that trials are a lifelong test, proving our faith either weak or genuine and sturdy. Ultimately, God’s will for us is to see difficulty as a short-term obstacle resulting in the long-term joy of loving and trusting Him.
