In this series Tony speaks to one of the most difficult subjects in all of our lives...

SUFFERING!

Suffering is a topic that confuses many people about God... and a topic that makes many people angry at God.

It's a topic that makes many people stop believing in God.

Why does God allow suffering?

How can God be a God of love... and allow all the suffering in the world?

How can God be a God of love... and allow innocent children to suffer?

It seems that for many people... the topics of God and suffering are mutually exclusive... as if they believe that if one of them exists... the other should not.

So what do we do with our pain and suffering?

How can we make sense of both God and suffering in our lives at the same time?

In this series Tony develops what he calls... A Theology of Suffering... and shares 6 principles that create a template that will inform our understanding of the suffering in our lives.

The first two principles are really BAD NEWS.

But it's the BAD NEWS that makes the GOOD NEWS really GOOD NEWS.

The last four principles will help us to reconcile our faith in God... while living in a very wounded... broken.. and fallen world.

Welcome to A Theology of Suffering.

For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.  Romans 8:18

We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Romans 8:22

Note - Several of the ideas shared in this series reflect the teachings of Dr. Jordan Peterson on the topic of suffering... such as the idea that meaning is the antidote to suffering.
