16: Tom Rundel: Ask Me Anything Pt 1: Suffering Edition


Listen Later

Today I asked many of you to submit your questions to me for an Ask Me Anything episode, and I was absolutely shocked at the amount of questions I received. I have four pages of your questions, and today I took on four of them.

#1 from Paul: How do you recognize God during deconstruction when God seems to have completely disappeared?

#2 from Scott: When there are tragedies in people's lives, what other things can we genuinely say to them other than “we are praying for you”, or “it’s all in Gods plan” that will be helpful in their situation?
#3 from Lance: The problem of evil; "If there is a loving God, then why does He allow bad things to happen?"
#4 Tim: When you have gone through your toughest season(s), what was your spiritual "North Star?" Along the same lines... what was your biggest fear during that season? And along the same lines... where were you most misunderstood?
