Episode 47: D is for Disaster

[ download ]

Pastor Riley and Sandra are joined by Kate Olson as they continue to discuss the First Article and how Christians answer questions about how and why a good and gracious God allows bad things to happen. What do we confess about our Heavenly Father when things go wrong and we face suffering? How do we respond to God’s gifts? How do we know when God has given a gift or is allowing us to experience pain? Is there a difference?
