Summary
"God won't give you more than you can handle." This is one of the most common and least helpful reassurances floating around Christian circles. It is anything but biblical. The truth is that God does allow a lot more than we can handle. But why? Our guest has walked through tragedy in his own life—professional uncertainty, the intense impact of mental illness, and the struggle to build a family because of a lost pregnancy, infertility, and adoption. As a pastor, he has cried with countless people experiencing deep and overwhelming pain. They want answers but perhaps even more, they want someone to sit with them as they lament. Cliché Christianity tells us not to ask questions in hard times. Yet transformation awaits us in the dark night of the soul.

| 0:00.0 | Hi friend, thanks so much for downloading this broadcast and it is my most sincere hope that you'll hear something that will change you forever. |
| 0:06.3 | Edify, equip, enlighten, encourage, and then get you out there into the marketplace of ideas. |
| 0:11.0 | That's what this program is designed to do. By the way, not my idea. That's where |
| 0:14.3 | Jesus told us to go, to go and tell. And sometimes when you get out there, it's kind of rough. |
| 0:19.4 | So I'm going to take a moment to tell you about this month's truth tool because it understands it can be |
| 0:23.0 | rough out there. Ray Comfort is a bold evangelist for the cause of the cross and I |
| 0:27.2 | so appreciate every time I get to talk to him. He's written a book called |
| 0:30.6 | so many lions, so few Daniels, how true that is, and he wants us to discover |
| 0:36.2 | how to live fearlessly for Christ. And he notes that like Daniel and Babylon, Christians today are |
| 0:41.0 | exiles in a hostile culture. And every day we face the lions, the easier |
| 0:44.8 | role of moral compromise, the lure of earthly wealth and influence, the temptation to give |
| 0:49.8 | into our fears or our apathy, and yet we're called to obey God rather than humankind and we need |
| 0:55.6 | encouragement to do it. That's what this book is all about and it's why I've chosen so many |
| 1:00.8 | lions, so few Daniels as this month's truth tool. |
| 1:04.0 | We're a listener supported radio and it's a very tangible way, |
| 1:06.9 | not only for me to help you grow up in him, |
| 1:08.7 | but to say thank you for your financial support |
