Suffering for the Sake of the Body

The Pursuit of People Through Pain

What does Paul mean when he says, "I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I do my share on behalf of His body (which is the church) in filling up that which is lacking in Christ's afflictions"? Is your vision of God and your understanding of the Biblical theology of suffering sufficient to sustain you if (when!) God calls you to suffer for the sake of His Name both here on the home front or perhaps on the mission field?

This seminar, taught by John Piper at The Bethlehem Institute, is designed to prepare you for such suffering and to help you "count it all joy."
