What Do You Do When Answers to Evil & Suffering Aren't Enough?
About this episode
The episode explores the question of why God allows evil and suffering in the world and discusses various theological perspectives on the matter.
In this first episode of Beyond Simple Answers we explore the question, Why does God create a world where evil and suffering exist? Why answers to this question don't fully satisfy, and how can we continue to explore God, faith, evil, suffering in a theological vision (engaging the Bible and more) together? Explore the profound question of why God created the world, considering theological answers, human experiences of suffering, and the implications for faith and understanding. Join us as we unpack different perspectives and wrestle with the big questions of existence. Check out Kristin’s book, We Mend With Gold!
