from With The Perrys · host The Perrys
With The Perrys is back, and the first conversation of 2026 is all about suffering and God’s sovereignty.

Jackie and Preston wrestle with the mystery of why God allows suffering and what it means to trust that God is both sovereign and good, even when life hurts. You can be in pain and still have joy.
