Where Do You Fit In At Asbury? Welcome to Asbury! No matter your age, we have a place for you. We value the experience of older adults as much as the energy of children and students. We know that every person has a God-given purpose in the Body of Christ. Our mission is to help you discover that purpose and follow Jesus in your daily life. With such a huge variety of opportunities to get involved, we know you’ll be able to find a place that’s just right for you! Check out www.asburytulsa.org to learn more.
Worship Encountering God through affliction “Why do bad things happen to good people?” is a frequently asked question.
We could also ask, “Why do good things happen to bad people?” Sometimes we get what we deserve but Job had done nothing wrong and still got smashed by life. Life isn’t always fair. Live long enough, and life goes wrong for every human being (if for no other reason, we all die and those we love, die). There is a LOT of pain in the Bible. But there are also some amazing stories of people meeting and trusting God in the midst of the storms of life. Sometimes we have to reach our lowest point before we realize we must trust One greater than ourselves. Ironically, it’s often at our weakest moments that we encounter God.
