Episode notes

We all have that voice in our head, like we think when something happens with our kids. What can i do to solve my problem? Which might not be the first question we need to do. The default human heart is carmic. We default to thit. And what people of good faith end up doing is giving spiritual techniques to the fix as opposed to the real news.

In a life filled with suffering, is a good life truly possible? In this episode of White Horse Inn, Eric Landry, Justin Holcomb, and Bob Hiller ask the hard questions about sin, suffering, and real life. Just because this life can be hard doesn’t mean that we should embrace a dualism that places the body and soul in opposition to each other. Instead, we need to acknowledge a certain realism about how the world functions on this side of the fall, being honest about what is evil—and even just disappointing. We can do so by clinging to God’s sovereignty in the midst of our suffering, his creativity to use it for our good, and his kindness to give us tangible good gifts even now, while we look with hope towards the future glory that awaits.
