About this listen

In this stirring message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson invites listeners to embrace the call to spiritual fruitfulness—even amid suffering. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 4:7-15, he challenges the church to see affliction not as a barrier, but as a powerful means through which God's surpassing power is revealed. As clay jars carrying the priceless treasure of the gospel, believers display Christ’s strength through their weakness.

Pastor Johnson highlights how suffering serves not only to magnify God’s glory within us but also to bring life to others and unify the church in shared compassion and purpose. Whether facing illness, relational hardship, or spiritual fatigue, this sermon encourages listeners to persevere, knowing that their endurance and faith shine as a testimony to God’s sustaining grace.

Tune in to be reminded that affliction can be beautiful—and that through it, both Christ’s life and love are made known.
