  12. Sometimes life is hard and seems unbearable. How could someone actually rejoice in suffering?    The Apostle Paul writes to us in Romans 5:3 "...we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us." Join Craig and Troy as they talk about suffering and character.
