Suffering as an Instrument of God's Love (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In part two of a series on the theology of suffering, Dave Scherrer asks the question underneath the question: if God is love, why does He allow suffering at all? Dave reminds us that God is in the business of redeeming "Ta Panta" — all things — to Himself, and things only need redeeming if they're broken.

Read excerpt
Why does God allow suffering — and does He actually understand what we're going through?

Read excerpt
Joseph's story reads like a movie — betrayal, slavery, false accusation, imprisonment — and yet Scripture keeps insisting "the Lord was with him." In part two of our series on suffering, Dave Scherrer walks through Genesis 37-50 and pulls out four things Joseph's hardest years teach us about suffering well: that God's presence never actually leaves, that hardship can be part of a bigger plan, that integrity under pressure is both protective and restorative, and that real forgiveness is possible
