Can You Question God? Wisdom, Suffering & True Understanding • Weekend Show • Job 40–Prov 17

About this episode

The episode explores whether it's acceptable to question God, discussing themes of wisdom, suffering, and trust in God's justice.

Join my husband and I as we go through the entire Bible in a year, in conjunction with the Bible Discovery Guide and The Daily Show. This weekend we answer some of the big questions and viewer questions concerning whether God owes us answers, why Job repented, what true wisdom is, and how we can trust God's justice when we don't understand His ways. If you want to know your Bible better, then this is a great place to help deepen your big picture understanding.
