Rick Warren – God's Purpose for Testing and Trials

In this insightful and uplifting episode of Journey with Jesus, Pastor Rick Warren dives deep into a question every believer asks: Why does God allow testing and trials? 🌪️📖 The answer? Because He’s doing something greater in you than around you. Trials aren’t punishment—they’re preparation. Testing isn’t meant to break you—it’s designed to build you.

Rick unpacks James 1:2-4, “Consider it pure joy… whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance,” and 1 Peter 1:7, “These trials will show that your faith is genuine.” He reminds us that God uses trials to stretch our faith, shape our character, and draw us closer to Him. Through every storm, God is refining your heart for His purpose.

If you’re walking through a hard season, this episode is for you. 🙏 Let Rick Warren guide you through the fire with wisdom, hope, and a reminder that your trial has a purpose—and your God has a plan.

“The testing of your faith produces perseverance.” – James 1:3 🕯️
