Is God Disappointed in Me?

You've made a mistake. Now what? As humans, we often resign ourselves to living in guilt or shame because we assume that God is disappointed in us.

Romans 7–16

In this episode we'll talk about Romans 7-16. We'll review three separate concepts.

Second, we'll review how hope and peace can increase as we better understand the concept that trials can lead to personal growth. Third, we'll discuss the importance of understanding our thoughts and how they lead to emotions. We'll review how a better appreciation of true doctrines can lead to positive feelings, while a poor understanding of doctrine can increase negative feelings.

Acts 22–28

In this episode we'll talk about Acts 22-28. We continue with the missionary travels of Paul and the difficulties he experienced during this time.

We'll discuss the value of trials, regardless of their source, and how diligent effort can help us prevail. We will also discuss how the Lord has promised to support the obedient in all their difficulties. As we partner with Him and stay firm on the covenant path, we can have peace that things will work out even when days are dark and challenges are unrelenting.

Acts 16–21

In this episode we'll talk about Acts 16-21. After Peter received instruction that the gospel was to be preached to both Jew and Gentile, a massive missionary effort began within the ancient church. Paul, formerly Saul, and his associates were some of those first Christian missionaries. We'll talk about the many trials and difficulties and Paul and his cohorts went through as they tried to preach about Jesus Christ. We'll discuss the mistaken belief that if we are obedient, we will not experience major trials and difficulties. We'll review how even though obedience yields blessings, some of those blessings don't come until later. And we'll discuss how suffering and adversity may play a large role in our spiritual development.
