In part two of a series on the theology of suffering, Dave Scherrer asks the question underneath the question: if God is love, why does He allow suffering at all? Dave reminds us that God is in the business of redeeming "Ta Panta" — all things — to Himself, and things only need redeeming if they're broken. Suffering entered the world through sin, and Dave walks through Genesis 3:16-19 to trace how guilt, pain, toil, and death became part of the human story. But God didn't stay distant — He entered our suffering Himself in Jesus Christ, and through His death and resurrection is making a way to a world where suffering will be no more (Revelation 21:4). Dave closes with a vital distinction: Christian hope isn't wishful thinking, but a confident expectation anchored in God's unchanging love and Kingdom plan. Visit us at https://100foldministries.org
