About this listen

You'll often hear me say "God doesn't call us to be healthy, but He does call us to be holy." I know this will bother some people, especially those who have been exposed to the Prosperity Gospel. This episode focuses on what I've learned from God's word that makes me want sufferers to understand and embrace this important truth so that they can more fully glorify God, even in their pain.
