Living in the Presence of Jesus
Suffering, pain and disappointments can make you feel like you're miles away from God. But that suffering can also bring you closest to His presence. Ed Stetzer talks with Joni Eareckson Tada about the lessons she's learned from the suffering she's endured in her life and the peace she's experienced through her pain, just living in the presence of Jesus.
