Title:
James A. Jones - "Beyond a Religion of Comfort" (January 26, 1958)
Description:

  • The Christian religion requires pain, because pain leads to experience and begets faith. Although comfort provides happiness, it does not provide joy--it is only through pain that we can arrive at true happiness. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)

  • Key quotation: "Perhaps you can be religious without pain, but, my friends, you cannot be Christian without pain."
