#30 Blaming God For Our Suffering

5/8/2017
It is impossible to fully grasp the reasons why... it is mysterious... how to rationalize the death of a nine year old. When destruction and death wreak havoc - we struggle to find the words to make sense of the senseless. Why would God let bad things happen to good people? Why doesn’t God intervene from all the evil? Why would God remove a loved one from our lives? Why do we always blame God for our suffering? Co-hosts Iben Thranholm and Terry Beatley bring the firepower to this one. A...
