Ed Stetzer talks with Grant Flynn about his book, Lament in the Letter of James and the issue of lament found tucked away in the book of James... and how the ongoing cycle of lament and joy reflects the pain of human suffering and the hope we have in Christ on Ed Stetzer Live.

Sometimes we feel our lives have been turned upside down, that there's no way to put the pieces of our life back together. But God can use even the most broken circumstances to bring about His perfect plan. Ed Stetzer talks with Anne Graham Lotz and Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright about their book, God Won't Leave You There, the story of Joseph, and the dramatic trials he went through that would ultimately lead to God's purpose for his life. Joseph's story serves as hope for all of us, knowing that God is trustworthy, and will always be with you on Ed Stetzer Live.

God―the source of every good and perfect gift―offers abundant promises in Scripture. But sometimes, studying his word can feel more difficult than rewarding. Author Uche Anizor shares with Ed Stetzer a series of accessible meditations he's written about in his book, The Goodness of God in the Gift of Scripture: 20 Meditations, that help believers see the Bible as an extension of God’s mercy and love, and the blessing that it is on Ed Stetzer Live.
