Make It Make Sense

Author: Epikos Church July 5, 2026 Duration: 37:36
"Psalm 73 gives voice to one of the hardest questions people ask: Why do the wicked seem to prosper while those who seek God struggle? In this sermon, we explore the honest doubts of Asaph, who wrestled with envy, discouragement, and the apparent unfairness of life. Rather than ignoring these questions, Scripture invites us to bring them before God, where our perspective begins to change. As Asaph enters God's presence, he discovers that lasting hope isn't found in earthly success but in God's faithful presence. This message reminds us that faith doesn't require pretending everything makes sense—it calls us to trust the One who remains our strength and our portion forever. Whether you're wrestling with disappointment, comparing your life to others, or searching for deeper confidence in God, Psalm 73 points us toward the hope that endures beyond every circumstance."
