Is This As Good As It Gets?

This week’s message is brought by Sojourn elder Rob Plummer. Rob is a New Testament professor at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville. He examines the famous “memory verse” Romans 8:28 (And we know that all things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purposes) as well as the following two verses. Is this life as good as it gets? When we struggle, when we suffer, when we achieve our goals and they just don’t deliver on our expectations, is that all we can hope for? The answer for Christians is absolutely not. Plummer looks at why Christians have hope for much more in this life, why they can have peace even when they don’t have happiness, and the absolute assurance that those whom God calls are without fail brought into a process that ends in their perfection, guaranteed.
