The Connected Life

279: Believing in a Good God in Trying Times Pt. 2 of 2


Listen Later

In the messiness of humanity there is a world of pain and suffering all around us that we can't deny. For some of us, reconciling that there's a good God that could have created a world filled with tragedy and trauma, feels nearly impossible. For many others the greatest hurdle isn't the world around us, it's the pain that strikes our personal lives that leaves us confused and questioning our faith.

In part 2 of this mini-series, Justin's best friend Marcus returns to discuss ways to stay anchored to the idea of a good God when circumstances seem to differ. Justin shares openly about Abi almost dying and its surprising impact on his view of God. Together they address spiritual bypassing, the destructive nature of accusation, and the powerful role being present plays in discovering a faithful Papa in trying times.

If you've ever had difficulties that caused you to question your faith, this episode will help you be honest with yourself while making room for exploration and authentic conversations with people you trust. Don't miss out!
