Suffering doesn’t define us, beloved. Suffering doesn’t define the believer. Suffering shapes us - it forms us - it grants us an entirely other-level of existence. Suffering doesn’t rob us of our potential. It grants us our potential.
Well, that’s a wrap. The @HappyRantPod is now a memory.
We completed our almost decade long run last night with a live show in Indianapolis.
It was a joy to connect with some amazing listeners who have faithfully supported us for many years.
Thank you!
And, until next time…
"Avoid a sugar-coated gospel. Seek that gospel which rips up, tears, and cuts, and even kills, for that is the gospel that makes alive again."
— Charles Spurgeon
If we are true Christians, we must not expect everything smooth in our journey to heaven. We must count it no strange thing, if we have to endure sicknesses, losses, bereavements, and disappointments, just like other men. He has never promised that we shall have no afflictions.
I’m back in Nykarleby, at St. Birgitta Lutheran church, which has this brilliant 17th-century diagram of the Trinity painted on the ceiling. I’ve posted a similar picture before, but it’s worth another look.

The apostle Paul: “If anyone thinks that he is a prophet, or spiritual, he should acknowledge that the things I am writing to you are a command of the Lord. If anyone does not recognize this, he is not recognized.” 1 Corinthians 14:37–38
This authority is now the New Testament.
“One begins to wonder whether the evangelical world isn’t prepared to denounce any sins except the ones that evangelicals aren’t currently being tempted to commit.”
