John and Arden tackle this deep topic through John’s new book, \"The King Is Coming,\" arguing that hardship can carry divine purpose by deepening Christ’s bond with His church. Drawing from Scripture and trauma-bonding research, they show how shared pain can form trust and loyalty that comfort cannot.
