I highly recommend listening to the message. It contains Scriptural encouragement from a man who has walked with our Lord Jesus for a long time and who wants us to benefit from how our Lord has been shepherding him through this difficult trial. If you have been going through trials of your own, as I have been, you will find it especially helpful. I also ask the readers to pray for our brother Brian, for his family, and for his church.
