About this episode
This episode explores how Christ provides meaning to the believer's suffering through reflections on Job by Joseph Caryl.
In this episode, we turn to Joseph Caryl’s reflections on Job to see how Christ gives meaning to the believer’s suffering. Without Him, affliction feels dark and senseless; with Him, it becomes purposeful and refining. Christ, who suffered before us, now interprets our pain with wisdom and compassion. Under His hand, no sorrow is wasted, and no trial is without hope.
