Ep. 16: Where does hope come from? Hint; it's not what you think.

In this short podcast, I share a few thoughts on one of my favorite texts, Paul's letter to the Romans, in chapter 5, where he talks about boasting in suffering. So many critiques of God are based on the idea that God is some sort of omnipotent, holy goalie, whose job is to manipulate the world so that we have no suffering. Instead of our God is a God, who allows the world to be, and simply is present with us, and good days and bad, and the fun of things, and even in our suffering. When we embrace suffering, we can see there is a path to hope. email: [email protected]
