One of the most complex things about the Christian faith - even for Christians - is the theology of the Trinity. "God is One," the scriptures say, but somehow He...is also Three? Pastor Jim Stern helps us understand this trinitarian paradox and demonstrates how developing a relationship with each person of the Trinity can be absolutely transformational.

Arguably the most asked and most difficult question to answer related to faith is this one: “If God is loving and all powerful, why does He allow pain and suffering in our lives?” Asked by skeptics and believers alike, this age-old question becomes even harder to answer when it relates to young, innocent children, barely old enough to understand the pain they’re enduring. Host Eric Huffman and Christian apologist and author John Hopper search for answers by sharing the stories of two mothers and their sons who experienced suffering in ways most of us pray we never have to.  Get more information about John Hopper’s new book “Questioning God?: Answers to Questions Worth Asking”: www.questioninggod.com Watch Maybe God interviews: youtube.com/maybegodpodcast   Sign up for our weekly newsletter with exclusive content: www.maybegodpod.com  Follow Maybe God on Instagram and Facebook: @maybegodpod 

Author and Christian apologist Mary Jo Sharp talks about being caught in the tension between the beauty of God's story and the ugliness of human hypocrisy. She recounts her first time experiencing hurt in the church, how it led her to question her faith in God, and how the exploration that arose from the church hurt led her to where she is today - helping people overcome their intellectual and emotional doubts about the Christian faith.

Are you tired of people knowing who you are, but no one really knowing you? That is the question our guest, Ben Higgins, posed in his new book, Alone in Plain Sight: Searching for Connection When You're Seen but Not Known. After being thrust into the international spotlight on ABC's The Bachelorette (Season 11) and The Bachelor (Season 20), Ben was forced to deal with his demons behind the scenes. Our other guest, Cam Ayala, was also a contestant on The Bachelorette (Season 15) and Bachelor in Paradise (Season 6), both of which resulted in him being branded as the bad guy. Since then, Cam has been forced to cope with waves of online bullying and harassment, but that struggle is nothing compared to a life-or-death battle he has fought most of his life. Through all of their pain and soul-searching, both Ben and Cam have come to understand the importance of being truly known - by the people around them, and by God. *** Have questions, comments, or story ideas for Maybe God?
