Where is God in a World Full of Suffering?

About this episode

The episode explores the question of God's presence in a world filled with suffering, using teachings from A Course in Miracles to provide insight.

Everywhere we look in our world there are so many tragedies it's easy to ask, "Where is God in all of this?" Does He even know about our suffering and, if He does, why doesn't He do more? These are the questions that cut right to the heart of our deepest doubts and struggles with religion and spirituality. But this is also where A Course in Miracles can help, because the Course offers a series of teachings that - when you put them together - provide an answer to this long-standing question that actually makes sense. If you've ever wondered how a loving God could allow so much pain, you won't want to miss this Sunday Gathering message from Emily Perry. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .
