In this week’s POSC Podcast, Bro. Joseph D. Putnam delivers a powerful message rooted in Romans 8:28, revealing a truth believers can anchor their lives on: the unwavering goodness of God. Speaking from the perspective of someone intimately acquainted with trial, Bro. Putnam reminds us that God’s goodness is not proven by the absence of suffering—but by His faithfulness in the middle of it. Bro. Putnam walks listeners through the extraordinary hardships of Paul’s life—whippings, beatings, shipwrecks, persecution, hunger, cold, imprisonment, and relentless pressure from all sides—only to point us back to Paul’s own conclusion: “Afflicted, but not crushed… struck down, but not destroyed.” God sustained him. God delivered him. God was still good. And the same God who carried Paul carries us today. With sincerity, Scripture, and steady conviction, Bro. Putnam parallels Paul’s testimony with our own battles—broken bodies, lost loved ones, grief, mistreatment, uncertainty, unmet promises—and shows how God weaves His goodness through every chapter. Our trials don’t disqualify His goodness. They display it. When hope feels distant, His hand is present. When weakness overwhelms, His strength lifts. When pain cries loudest, His comfort speaks clearest. This episode also carries a dual call to action: If you’re in the storm—praise anyway. God moves in the middle of honest worship. If you’ve come through the storm—praise because He brought you out. Ending with a resounding echo of Psalm 150, this message shifts our posture from asking “Why me?” to declaring “God is still good.” It stirs something in the soul and demands a response: let everything that has breath praise the Lord. No clouds. No clichés. Just confidence in God’s goodness. To hear more about what God is doing in Sheboygan County and beyond, visit us at posc.church!
