Providence and Evil

All of us experience pain and suffering to some degree. And who of us does not want to understand why? Scripture tells us that Job was no exception. But after his continual supplications, Job received more than he bargained for when God finally broke His silence. So what did Job’s ignorance of the created order have to do with his question? In this message, Dr. Derek Thomas explains the overarching reason for all those unanswered questions about why we suffer in our lives.
