Last Saturday, a gunman killed two students and wounded nine at Brown University’s School of Engineering. Two days later, an MIT physics professor was fatally shot outside his home; police later announced the suspect in both shootings was found dead in a New Hampshire storage facility. Tragedies like these strip away the comfort of believing in belief itself and press us to confront whether our faith is actually anchored in the God we claim to trust. The question before us is not whether faith feels sustaining, but whether we will wrestle honestly with God in the face of innocent suffering—or defer those questions until grief inevitably makes them unavoidable.
