The Pilgrim’s Pursuit

Episode 18 — a solo update and reflection from the host after an eight-month break: personal life changes (courting, engagement, wedding in October), busy seasons on the farm (haying, silaging oats, current calving), and why the podcast paused. The host gives a brief recap of the recent tragic events in Tumbler Ridge — a violent attack that left many dead, including children — and processes the immediate emotional response, anger, and desire for justice. Turning to Scripture, the episode explores why such evil happens in light of sin entering the world, citing Romans 1:28–32, Romans 12 and 13, Ephesians 6:12, and other passages. The host discusses human depravity, the role of spiritual forces, the danger of vengeance, and the need to leave judgment to God while calling for godly justice. The episode offers pastoral comfort from Psalm 34 — God hears the cries of the brokenhearted, delivers his people, and will one day make all things new — and reminds listeners that God is near in sorrow. Closing with a call to action: pray for the people and churches of Tumbler Ridge, seek unity, share the gospel, and care for the grieving. This is a solo episode with no guests — a personal, scriptural response to tragedy and a reminder of hope in Christ.
