Hard…However — VOUSCon 2026 — Rich Wilkerson Jr.

What do you do when life gets hard? In this message, Hard… However, Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. reminds us that following Jesus was never promised to be easy, but purpose has always been worth pursuing. So many people stop moving because they don’t know what’s next. But a life of calling requires faith, endurance, and trust in the God who never leaves us. The journey may be hard… however, God has called you, equipped you, and assigned you for something greater than yourself. Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. unpacks what it means to live for God’s glory and remain faithful when the path feels uncertain. However… I’m Called I’m Not Quitting God Is With Me “You’ll either live your life compelled or complacent.” No matter what you’re walking through today, remember this: Life may be hard… HOWEVER, God is still writing your story.
