Be encouraged to persevere and maintain an eternal perspective in the face of hardship. In this talk from June 24, 2026, Elizabeth Kaufmann reflects on her mother’s (Gwen Lara’s) conviction that this ministry was founded solely to serve God—not for money, fame, or human approval, and Elizabeth reaffirms that same commitment. Drawing from scriptures including 1 Peter, John, and the Parable of the Sower, Elizabeth notes that trials, persecution, loss, and suffering are part of our walk of faith in God through Christ rather than reasons for discouragement. She urges listeners to embrace life's "rain" by responding with self-control, love, and hope, focusing on eternal life rather than temporary struggles, and trusting that God can bring healing and restoration even after loss. Be encouraged to maintain a long-term investment in God's kingdom and remain focused on the future, continue loving others, and "march onward" with faith in the midst of adversity.
