Goodness in Me

June 5, 2022 • Curtis Andrusko

In this final message from our “Goodness in the Middle” series, Pastor J.D. looks at the sufferings of the Apostle Paul, what he called his “thorn in the flesh.” Paul never asked for his thorn—in fact, he repeatedly asked God to take it away. And yet, through this painful situation, Paul learned to lean upon God’s goodness. Because if dependence is our objective, weakness turns out to be an advantage.

In this Mother’s Day message, Pastor Bryan walks us through the story of one of the Bible’s lesser known characters—Hagar. “Hagar” may not be a household name, but her experience is common enough: Isolated, mistreated, abandoned, Hagar may have wondered what in the world God was up to. But in the end, she would not only learn about God’s goodness. She would experience God’s goodness by seeing him—and more importantly, him seeing her—face-to-face.
