N.T. Wright wrote a thoughtful piece in Time about how Christianity offers no answers to Covid19 (https://time.com/5808495/coronavirus-christianity/). Thomas Jay Oord offered his own thoughtful response to N.T. Wright about how Christians can lament and explain (http://thomasjayoord.com/index.php/blog/archives/we-can-lament-and-explain) in the midst of the Covid19 pandemic. So we invited Tom Oord on (interview starts at 40:45) to talk about the nature of God and what God can, and maybe more importantly, can't do in the midst of pain and suffering. Please enjoy!
