If God is healer, why hasn’t He healed me yet?
If God is comforter, why does it still hurt?
If God is the provider, why does lack still linger?
These aren’t questions of doubt.
These are the questions of discipleship.
On Sunday, Pastor Eric shared his journey of still waiting for his healing for his entire life. It was raw, vulnerable and a sprinkle of comedy. He wrestles with the paradox of knowing God as healer and provider while still waiting for healing himself. The talk honestly wrestles with the questions that emerge when healing, comfort, or provision are delayed: not as signs of doubt, but as essential questions of discipleship.
Through the lenses of the theology of waiting and the theology of suffering, Eric invites listeners to consider how God forms us not in spite of delay and pain, but through them. Drawing from personal stories and scripture he emphasizes that waiting is not passive but sacred; suffering is not meaningless but formative. Ultimately, the talk anchors in a powerful truth: If your faith has no room for suffering or waiting, then you may have a God you can control—but not the kind of God you can trust. Instead, let the waiting and the suffering be places of encounter, honesty, gratitude, and transformation. Listen to this talk to learn how all of this is an invitation to invite Jesus to disciple you.
