1376B: Mentoring Through Life’s Storms
If there is a general theme in Paul's writings, it would be encouragement in the midst of trials. A great part of Paul's mentoring became a ministry of the magnificence of seeing the grace of God as it could only be seen through life's storms. How do we, as Paul, encourage others in difficult straits? In one sense, we need to be willing, if need be, to suffer to teach and demonstrate the grace that suffering provides - the strength that only weakness appropriates.
