Описание: Proximity Part 3: Proximity to Purpose & Pain | Pastor Benjamin Lehew | Grace Summit Church

In the third installment of our "Proximity" series, Pastor Benjamin Lehew tackles a subject we often try to avoid: Sorrow. While we usually pray for God to take our pain away, Pastor Ben challenges us to look at the "Check Engine" light of our souls and learn how to process sorrow in the presence of God.

There is a profound difference between the sorrow of the world, which leads to shame and death, and Godly Sorrow, which leads to repentance, change, and a deeper proximity to the Father. Join us as we explore how to stop "stuffing" our pain and start allowing God to transform our greatest miseries into our greatest ministries.

In this message, you’ll discover:

Godly vs. Worldly Sorrow: Understanding 2 Corinthians 7:10 and why your "sadness" might be a highway to growth or a dead end of regret.

The "Check Engine" Light: How to identify the signals your soul is sending before you reach a total breakdown.

Don't Waste Your Sorrow: Why processing your pain with God is the only way to keep it from turning into bitterness.

The Man of Sorrows: Finding comfort in the fact that Jesus is "acquainted with grief" and meets us in our lowest moments.

Scripture References:

2 Corinthians 7:10-11, Isaiah 53:3, Hebrews 12:15,John 11:33-35
