Listen "Facing Suffering"

Episode Synopsis

Welcome to THE LINK - Bridging Faith and Life with Dr. Vincent Bacote! Every month, Dr. Bacote will introduce listeners to ways they can build connections between faith and life in their ministries and personal lives. This month, Dr. Bacote reflects on suffering and connects it to the suffering of Jesus and the book of 1 Peter.


In the Nicene Creed we see the words "he was crucified under Pontius Pilate," words that tell us Jesus truly suffered. Throughout the book of 1 Peter we see a church that faces suffering and persecution. Jesus' suffering and the message of 1 Peter show us we cannot avoid suffering as we pursue a life of faithfulness.


Dr. Bacote is a professor of theology and the director of the Center for Applied Christian Ethics at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois.
