In Rev. Kelly Hostetler's latest sermon on the 'Practicing the Way' series, Kelly focused on the role of suffering in personal transformation. Drawing from biblical references, particularly in the Book of James, Kelly emphasized that suffering is an inevitable part of growth and faith. Through personal anecdotes and theological insights, Kelly explored different perceptions of God's presence in our pain and how understanding God's character shapes our response to suffering. Kelly emphasized the importance of community, scripture, and spiritual practices as essential tools in navigating difficult times and drawing closer to God.
