Working with Dan Doriani

Tim Challies, author, book reviewer


Listen Later

Suffering is at the core of the Christian story, yet our experience of suffering as Christians creates all kinds of cognitive, spiritual, and emotional dissonance. Tim Challies, Dan's guest on this episode of Working with Dan Doriani, explicitly identifies this tension when he asks: "When we faced this time of tragedy, it was the time to ask: what is all this theology going to do for you? In your moment of need, are you going to turn away from it, or are you going to go deeper into it?"

Not only did Tim go deeper into it, but he also channeled his grief through his work. The resulting product was his book Seasons of Sorrow. Listen as Dan and Tim discuss the death of Tim's son, the gospel hope behind the sorrow of that loss, and how work – particularly writing – was Tim's way of processing and publicly healing.

We're giving away a few copies of Tim's book—click here to enter for the opportunity to win Seasons of Sorrow, provided by Zondervan.
