Episode 8

The Wilderness of Chosen Suffering to Know God

Published on: 7th March, 2025

Welcome back to My Seminary Life, and welcome back to Fish FryDays. In this year's edition of Fish FryDays, I will be bringing you all devotional style episodes to move us through the Lenten season. In today's episode, I breakdown the wilderness, chosen suffering, and knowing God; three things that when they are strung together may ruffle some Christian's feathers. However, here I breakdown how Lent is a time when we enter a chosen wilderness of suffering to purposefully create longings so we may know ourselves and, more importantly, be drawn to be with God more.

About the Podcast

My Seminary Life
My Seminary Life began as a way for my to chronicle my journey through finishing my Masters degree. After graduation, I began to turn my attention towards subjects that interest me or I was not required to take a class on in Seminary. I consider myself a life-long student, so even if I am not in a classroom environment, there is always something I am studying or learning about. My Seminary Life is the place where I keep those records of what I'm learning. If you're interested in people like CS Lewis and Dietrich Bonhoeffer, or in subjects like Homiletics and Cults, then you have come to the right place.
