Finding the Strength to Persevere

This week, The Redeemed founder Paul Amos and director Nate Dewberry offer thoughts on the topic of perseverance: How do we do it? Why do we do it? And how do our struggles make us stronger, better people?
When Jesus tells the crowd, “My yoke is easy, and my burden is light,” many of us misinterpret that to mean that everything becomes easier when we start following Jesus. While that’s not the case, God does provide the strength to persevere through our challenges, and someone who shoulders our burdens when life becomes too much to bear. We hope this week’s episode shows you a new perspective on the struggles you’ve encountered in your life, and thoughtful guidance for managing those yet to come.
