The Brothers Karamazov — Fyodor Dostoevsky — a realistic defense of faith that anchors the meaning of life in the hope of resurrection and the divine mystery of universal responsibility

Where there is Love: True freedom and redemptive transformation are never found in autonomous self-assertion, but in dying to self-centered egoism and surrendering to the active, Christlike love of God. In this episode, we examine The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, exploring the problem of innocent suffering and theodicy, active love versus abstract idealism, and practical insights for daily Christian living.
