God With Us: "With Us in the Darkness" | Pastor Todd Hessel

In a world filled with tragedy and suffering, we naturally wonder where God is in the darkness. John 1:1-3 reveals that our God is not like the limited gods of other religions, but is the Creator of all things who brought everything into existence from nothing. While darkness exists in our world through external evil, internal struggles, and relational pain, God didn't remain distant from our suffering. Jesus Christ, the Word who was with God and was God, entered our darkness by taking on human flesh and experiencing our pain. He is the true light that dispels darkness and gives life to all who believe. We are called to both see this light by trusting in Christ and share this light by bearing witness to others in our spheres of influence.
