Why do the innocent suffer? | Sermon by Dr. Clayton Oliphint | April 13, 2025
Simply Sermons Podcast
Certainty is virtually impossible, and the Bible is full of people who doubt. Doubt is a path to deeper faith, yet if we hang onto doubt, it will paralyze us. So we look to deepen our faith by examining difficult questions, and we implore the prayer from Mark 9:22-24 - “Lord I believe, help my unbelief.” Wrestling with Doubt | Dr. Clayton Oliphint | First United Methodist Church of Richardson

info_outlineAt the new year, we often want to reset and ask important questions: Who are we? What are our values? What are our goals? As Christians, we don’t come up with these ideas out of thin air. Who we are and what matters to us comes from who we know we belong to. To kick off 2025, we are going to dive into who we are, which is based in whose we are: We belong to Christ. Join us as we dive into our FUMCR values and discover the way Christ shows us how to live them out.
In this service, Pastor Sarah reflects on how a small act of service for our neighbor can be life-changing.
