SUFFERING:
Not Solving a Riddle, But Navigating a Journey

Often when Christians talk about suffering, we focus exclusively on the problem of evil. We try to answer the question, "If God is all good and all powerful, how can suffering still exist?" That's an important question. But if Christians focus exclusively on this question, we come across as God's defense attorneys, rather than God's ambassadors to those who are hurting.


  • God gave us the Bible to bring us into community with himself and the church.

  • God gave us the Bible as an invitation to be honest about our sin and suffering.

  • The God who inspired the Bible is a patient shepherd.
