Bespoken

Christian or not, suffering remains an inevitable result of living in this world. Human beings often find themselves asking “why?” any time they encounter a terminal illness, a child with birth defects, unjust imprisonment, or any other such tragedy. In today's episode, Ryan interviews Pastor Matt Smith on what the Bible has to say about suffering and how Christians are called to act when disaster strikes.Matt Smith - Pastor of Discipleship and Training at Chapel Hill Bible Church - recommends a book by Dr. Tim Keller on the subject for further study, "Walking With God Through Pain and Suffering."Have questions or ideas for a future episode?
