In this message from our Living Well on the Way Home series, Tim Anderson explores what it means to suffer for good as followers of Jesus. Drawing from 1 Peter 3:8–4:6, Tim reminds us that when we face hardship with faith, we reflect the heart of Christ — responding to evil with good and trusting that God is refining us for His glory.

As we look to Jesus, our ultimate example of righteous suffering, we’re encouraged to live with hope and courage in a world that often misunderstands the gospel. True freedom and transformation come not from avoiding suffering, but from walking through it with the assurance that God is at work in us and through us.
