When God is Silent
from Knowing God With Heart and Mind Hosted by Dan Sinkhorn
In this message from the series "When Life Breaks," Pastor Dan explores Job Chapter 9 and addresses what to do when God feels silent, distant, or overwhelming. Responding to his friend Bildad’s simplistic claim that suffering is always the result of personal sin, Job acknowledges God’s absolute sovereignty and awesome power over creation, yet wrestles with how a mortal can approach a terrifyingly holy God. Feeling trapped by his circumstances, Job cries out for an "arbiter"—a mediator or umpire to stand between human frailty and divine majesty. Pastor Dan connects Job’s ancient plea directly to the Gospel, showing how Jesus Christ serves as that promised mediator who understands our deepest pain, bridges the gap, and advocates for us even in our darkest seasons.
