How to Deal With a Thorn in the Flesh: The Strength of Weakness - Pablo Martinez

The Apostle Paul wrote ‘When I am weak, then I am strong’. This statement is one of the great paradoxes of our Christian life. A weakness is, humanly speaking, an obstacle and a limitation, but God´s view of our weakness is completely different from our own. The reason is that God´s power is made perfect and complete, not so much in spite of our weaknesses, but through them. Understanding this reality has become a source of encouragement to all those suffering from weaknesses. This Master Class explores how God transforms our limitations into sources of strength, offering hope and encouragement for anyone walking through trials.

This is part 4 in a 5 part series on 'How to Deal With a Thorn in the Flesh: Finding Strength and Hope Amidst Suffering'.
