SNS 027: Why Doesn't God Just Fix Things?
Episode description
In our last episode, there were a couple of things we just weren’t able to get to. In particular, the question of why God doesn’t just fix things. If he is the caring friend who is always with us, then why doesn’t he simply remove what is causing us pain? What if it is a result of his caring so much about us? And what if our going through the pain, with him by our side, is actually better for us than his merely fixing things? My name is Charles, grab yourself some coffee, and let’s talk about them.
