Suffering & The Goodness of God

In this second episode of the Stumble, Sam is joined by David Peterka of When the Saints based out of Malawi Africa. Join us as they discuss the work of When the Saints and the reality of human suffering in the world. How does the reality of suffering impact our understanding of the Biblical teaching on God? Can suffering be something that actually empowers a life of faith instead of damaging it?  If you're in the St. Louis area and want to meet up with Sam to discuss your own doubts and stumbling blocks, reach out at [email protected] and you can schedule a coffee and discussion.
