Sometimes life can seem so unfair. We face suffering that we feel we don't deserve, or are deprived of the good that we feel we do deserve. The seeming unfairness of life can challenge our faith like nothing else.

Needless to say, it’s very difficult to comprehend inside of grief what we never took time to understand outside of it.

Why does God allow such injustices? Why can wicked people sometimes get away with murder, while good people are left to languish with affliction?

In this blog audio, we look at some of the wisdom that St. Augustine uncovered from his deep study of Scripture, and his own experiences in life. In it, we find some timeless and important counsel for girding our own faith.
