Trusting God in Suffering: Suffering, Sin, and God's Sovereignty

from Back to the Bible Canada with Dr. John Neufeld · host Back to the Bible Canada

If God is truly sovereign, what do we do with the evil that people inflict on us? In this episode, Dr. John Neufeld tackles one of the most challenging tensions in the Christian faith — human free will and the sovereignty of God. Drawing from Lamentations, the story of Joseph, and the crucifixion itself, Dr. John makes the case that nothing happens outside of God's control, and that even our darkest experiences are held in the hands of a God whose mercies never come to an end.Trusting God in Suffering: One of the obstacles to faith is the problem of pain. Why does a powerful loving God allow suffering? The Scriptures are forthright and do not ignore, diminish or bypass the problem. Nor do they resolve it. But God does tell us how we are to respond to pain. In this 10 message series, Dr. John will explore God’s teaching on pain. It will not answer every question, but it will help us in the midst of our struggles.
