June 28, 2026: Take Them and Learn to Run - Romans 8 2.0

Pastor Nicole continued her Take Them and Learn to Run series by grounding us in Romans 8:18–26, where Paul reminds us that the race of faith is shaped by both present suffering and the glory God is forming within us. We looked at how creation—and we as God’s children—groan not just from pain, but from a deep longing for the fullness of redemption still ahead. Paul’s words invite us to live in that tension with hope, recognizing that our hardships become the very places where God’s transforming work takes root. As we keep running, we’re learning to turn our groans into anticipation of the future glory promised to us, trusting that God is revealing His presence in us as we move toward the finish line.
