In the midst of various trials, God invites us to find our joy in Him and what He has prepared for us.
Typically in the midst of suffering, we can't stop thinking about what has been taken from us. But God shows us in James 1 what He can produce in us in the midst of trials.

Note: Today, after our second service, our long-time key global mission partners Craig and Lisa will be sharing about their mission field in Southeast Asia. If you’re interested in meeting them and learning more, join us in the Welcome Center around 1pm (feel free to bring your lunch, or just pop in to listen).
