Beholding God in Affliction

Morning Service
Aug 10, 2025

How should a Christian respond in the face of opposition for their faith? Often, our first instinct does not reflect a biblical response. In Psalm 17, David responds to his adversity in counterintuitive ways. Instead of taking matters into his own hands he anchors his heart to God, and in doing so teaches us to trust in God’s ultimate vindication, rest in his loving protection, and long for his eternal presence.

Topics: Affliction, Justice, Hope, Dependence on God

Psalm 17:1-15
