! “COMFORTED, NOT COMFORTABLE”
!! 2 Corinthians 1:3-11
• Hard days, hard conversations, and hard appointments
• “Salvation has come to mean deliverance from unpleasant things.
Our hymns and sermons create for us a religion of consolation and pleasantness.
We overlook the place of the thorns, the cross and the blood.
We ignore the function of the hammer and file.”
– A.W. Tozer, The Root of the Righteous
