The gospel doesn’t offer us an escape from pain — that’s not what God promises us. What the gospel does provide is help and hope in the midst of trials.

Listen as Ryan walks through 1 Samuel 19, showing how it ultimately points to the hope and help the gospel of Jesus Christ provides.

This sermon was preached on October 6, 2024, at Grace Bible Church in Escondido, California.
