Suffering isn't a pleasant subject — but Jesus talked about it often, and Dave Scherrer believes learning to suffer well is part of the secret to glorifying God. In this series opener, Dave gets our terms straight before we go any further: What is suffering, anyway? Is a stubbed toe suffering? A breakup? Ten years of chronic pain? The loss of a child? Dave wrestles honestly with where pain ends and suffering begins, landing on a working definition — suffering is pain that goes so deep it touches the whole person: mental, physical, social, and spiritual. He closes with a vital caution: be very careful measuring another person's pain, because comparison is a slippery slope toward judgmentalism. Part one of a new series.
