Spiritual Life & Worship
A Place of Spiritual Formation
Completed in 2003, the ANTS Chapel has served as the spiritual centre of our community for over two decades. It is more than a building — it is where faculty and students gather daily to seek God's face, aligning academic pursuit with deep spiritual vitality.
Our worship is vibrant and interdenominational, reflecting the diverse cultures of the 10+ nations represented at ANTS. Through Morning Devotions, Community Chapel, and Evening Prayer, we mold servant leaders who are spiritually nourished and ready for ministry.

When You Suffer, Pray | James 5:13
What should a believer do when going through suffering?
In this encouraging chapel sermon, Rev. Shin reflects on James 5:13, which gives a simple but powerful instruction:
“Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray.” — James 5:13 (ESV)
The message explores the reality of suffering in the life of a believer and challenges us to respond to difficult seasons with prayer, faith, and trust in God.
Suffering does not always mean that God has abandoned us, nor is every difficult circumstance necessarily a direct consequence of personal sin. Scripture gives us examples of people who experienced suffering for different reasons, and even Jesus Christ suffered despite being completely without sin.
Understanding the Causes of Suffering
The sermon highlights several possible causes of suffering:
1. Suffering as a consequence of sin
Our actions can sometimes have painful consequences. The example of David and Bathsheba demonstrates how sin can bring serious consequences into a person's life.
2. Suffering resulting from disobedience to God
The experience of the people of Israel shows that disobedience and turning away from God can sometimes lead to difficult consequences.
3. Suffering resulting from uncontrolled desires
The account of Gehazi, whose greed and uncontrolled desire led to serious consequences, reminds us of the danger of allowing our desires to control us.
But the message also reminds us of an important truth: not all suffering is caused by personal sin.
Jesus Christ Himself suffered and died on the cross despite being sinless. Therefore, when we experience suffering, we should not automatically conclude that God is punishing us.
🙏 So, What Should We Do When We Suffer?
Pray.
James 5:13 directs the suffering believer toward God. Rather than allowing suffering to drive us away from God, we can allow it to draw us closer to Him.
When you are suffering, bring your situation before God. Seek His wisdom, strength, comfort, and grace. Trust Him even when you do not immediately understand why you are going through what you are experiencing.
Your suffering may have a cause you understand—or one you do not. But whatever the circumstance, God invites you to pray.
Join us for this timely chapel message by Rev. Shin as we learn how to understand suffering biblically and respond to difficult seasons with faith and prayer.
