Where Was God When I Was Suffering? | Interview with Jordyn Gent | 10KQ Podcast Ep.8

What do you do when your faith collides with deep pain?In this powerful and honest episode of the 10,000 Questions Podcast, Val O’Brien sits down with author and speaker Jordan Amari to talk about trauma, mental health, doubt, and the hard questions that surface when suffering feels unbearable.Jordan shares her journey as a survivor of sexual abuse, depression, and suicidal ideation—and how God met her not with easy answers, but with presence, healing, and hope. Together, they wrestle with questions students ask all the time:- Where was God when I was hurting?- Why doesn’t God stop suffering?- Can faith survive trauma and doubt?- How do you heal when the pain feels too deep?This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, angry, numb, or unsure what to believe anymore—and for those who want to understand how faith and healing can coexist.If you or someone you love is struggling, you are not alone—and there is hope on the other side of the questions.Resources & Links:Learn more about Aspen Ministry: https://aspenministry.org/Learn more about the 10,000 Questions project: ask10KQ.orgSubscribe for more student-driven conversations about faith and real life.Comment your question for our next Q&A.Share this episode with a friend who needs encouragement.
