Why Does God Allow Suffering? -- The Parker J. Cole Show

Why did my loved one have to die? Why did the relationship I worked so hard at, fail? Why do I have chronic illness or pain? Why did I lose my job? For that matter, if God is real, is present and sovereign, why does God allow suffering? Why does ANYONE have to deal with pain and heartache? 

It's a question many have asked and continue to ask. 

Trials and afflictions are not uncommon aspects of life in a broken world. But what is uncommon is to witness people go through those difficulties with their hearts at rest. What is uncommon is seeing people trust God instead of living crippled by fear, worry, and distress.

Today on the Parker J. Cole show, I chat with Pastor Erik Reed as he shares the lessons he learned through raising, and eventually burying, his son who battled medical issues throughout his life in his book, Uncommon Trust: Learning to Trust God when Life Doesn't Make Sense.  Listen in on Saturday, October 1st at 2 pm Eastern time. You can listen by calling 646-668-8485.
