Because of sin, all of creation suffers in futility. In today's message, Bruce Kalish studies Romans 8 and shows us how the world is subject to futility, and that our only hope in the face of futility is God, through faith in Christ. So, we can recognize the pain of this world, and grieve in the midst of that pain. Yet, because of our hope in God, we can and should live in expectation of God's coming kingdom.

From Series: "Identity: A Series in Romans 8"

Where do you find your identity? It can be tempting to find our identity in our career, our relationships, or our hobbies. In Romans 8, we learn that when we have a relationship with Jesus and are indwelt with the Holy Spirit, we have a new identity. We are no longer under condemnation. We are adopted into God's family as his children. We have a promised inheritance. We have a new purpose. And we have a new power, help through the Holy Spirit to live a life of victory and experience God's comfort in the midst of difficult times. No matter what we face in life, we can have confidence that we serve a God who loves us and works all things together for the good of those who love him.
