WEEK 6: SUFFERING. WHY?
SUMMARY:
Although suffering is inevitable it is also an unpopular subject. It remains inevitable even if we choose to ignore it. Scripture is filled with story after story of God’s people going through hardships, weeping, and pleading with God to be merciful. Why would a loving God allow humans to suffer?
It’s complicated and difficult to understand.
Even harder to comprehend is how we make such an effort to convert suffering into a badge of honor, as evidenced by the profusion of coffee cup sayings and t-shirt sales that proclaim that pain is gain. God provides for us abundantly. He does not ask that we bury our sorrow and cover it up with happiness; rather, He reminds us that even Jesus experienced grief, and that He is in our midst, especially when we go through tough times.
Join us as we search for truth in suffering and hope beyond it.
