Trauma and suffering are part of life in this broken world, but they don't get the last word in our stories. In this biblically rich episode, we explore the biblical connection between suffering and glory. We discover how Christ meets us in our pain, and find hope in the promise that nothing can separate us from God's love.

Friend, thinking about trauma is hard. But it’s part of this life “between the gardens”. If the idea of “Glorious Suffering” makes no sense to you, maybe take some time this week to meditate on the following passages:

• Romans 8:18–39 — Present suffering, future glory, and the inseparable love of God
• 2 Corinthians 4:8–18 — Finding hope by fixing our eyes on what is eternal
• Philippians 3:10–11 — Knowing Christ in both suffering and resurrection
• 1 Peter 5:10–11 — God’s promise to restore and strengthen us
