Today we welcome back Pastor Jared for a discussion on the magnitude of God’s character, both His pleasant and unpleasant attributes. We address how elements of the church have ignored both truth and love. And we establish—from a Biblical perspective—that we must focus on both the Bad News and the Good News. But before jumping into those topics, we emphasize the importance of asking the hard questions of our faith.
In this episode, we reference Pastor Jared’s “Check your attitude” sermon in which he discusses our attitude toward sin and suffering. You can listen here:
