Episode notes

Exploring the profound concept of groaning as a form of communication with God in times of deep suffering, highlighting its transformative power and connection to the Spirit. Emphasizing the importance of lament, the chapter delves into how groaning can lead to healing and victory, drawing parallels to Jesus' suffering and redemption. Through personal anecdotes and biblical references, it showcases the deep significance of groaning as a means to express inner struggles and encounter God in the midst of pain.

When we talk about the gifts of the Spirit, more often than not we think of the grandiose or powerful ones, like healing or prophecy, but those are only part of what the Spirit offers. Just as God enters into the beauty, he equally enters into our pain, giving us particular gifts to help us in our suffering. From Romans 8v22-27, with Gavin Bennett.
