    I Surrender All Day 11: Finding Christ in Our Suffering

    Host Susan Downie reflects on Priscilla Shirer’s chapter “Everything You Face” and Philippians 3:7–10, exploring how suffering draws believers into deeper intimacy with Christ. She discusses the distinction between worldly comfort and gospel truths, personal stories of hardship, and the call to endure shame and rejection for the sake of mission. Susan encourages listeners to see suffering as part of the Christian journey, to remain generous and faithful during trials, and to join God in advancing His kingdom with boots on the ground.
