Redemptive Suffering

Adrianna and Giuliana discuss suffering. We start by talking a bit about theology: If God loves us, why do we suffer? Then, we get more personal: How have we found freedom in suffering? Who has inspired us to live suffering well? What steps are we trying to take in our own experiences of suffering? / Our weekly challenge is to commemorate 3PM on Friday — the time Jesus died. And our media recommendation is the novel East of Eden by John Steinbeck. // We’d love to hear from you!
