Why God Hasn't Taken Away Your Struggles

The Fr. Mike Schmitz Catholic Podcast

About this episode

Do you ever wish God would take away your struggles? Unlike angels, we’re made to grow--and that growth takes time. Fr. Mike explains how God works through our daily choices, weaknesses, and struggles to shape us. As we cooperate with his grace, he refines us, helping us become who he created us to be.
