As God’s people, we are called and equipped to approach suffering not with withdrawal but with honest lament, bold protest, and humble surrender—finding peace not in answers, but in encountering God Himself.

Job doesn’t give us answers to suffering—it gives us God. And when we connect Job’s story to Jesus, the innocent one who suffered for us, we see that our pain is not pointless, because resurrection will have the final word.

This week we stepped into Isaiah 52–53 and were invited to behold a God who doesn’t stay distant from suffering but steps directly into it—absorbing it, bearing it, transforming it. This is not a God of hollow religiosity or detached morality. This is the Servant King who is both pierced and enthroned. The One who was crushed and victorious.

In this week’s message, “The Hope and Plan of God,” Josh explores Isaiah 5 and 11, tracing the tension between God’s grief over injustice and His promise of restoration through the coming Messiah. We’re reminded that the Church is called not just to believe—but to embody justice, mercy, and Spirit-filled hope
