Why Does God Allow Suffering? Examining Faith and Hardship with Dr. Mark Giszczak

Dr. Mark Giszczak, a professor of Sacred Scripture at the Augustine Institute Graduate School of Theology, joins Father Dave to explore the profound themes of suffering during Lent. They discuss how voluntary sacrifices differ from the inevitable pain of life. Giszczak emphasizes engaging deeply with Scripture for spiritual enrichment and reveals how suffering can lead to spiritual growth. By examining redemptive suffering through St. Paul and insights from Thomas Aquinas, they illuminate how hardship can connect us more intimately with God.
