Fr. Prince Michael

Suffering may feel meaningless, but grace can transform it. God doesn't will pain, but responds with life, hope, and purpose—just as Easter followed Good Friday. Tragedy often breaks us open to grace. God’s love doesn’t prevent suffering but offers us the strength to find meaning, healing, and even joy in its aftermath.

Fr. Peter Jae Choi

Father Richard Leonard

God does not cause suffering. Rather, Jesus reveals a loving God who brings healing and light, not punishment. Suffering is not God's divine retribution. Believing in a compassionate God challenges harmful theology. In suffering, we are invited to reject images of a vengeful deity and trust in Christ’s healing, non-violent presence.
