CTDW Episode 5 - The Quiet Rebellion Series Episode 3 - Praying in Pain through the Lense of Eternity

Welcome back to The Christian Theological Dark Web. Today we are exploring the final episode of “The Quiet Rebellion Series.” In this final episode of the series, we explore prayer with pain as the backdrop. Pain is an inescapable reality for every living thing. The conundrum of an omnipotent and omnibenevolent God creating and interacting with us is potentially the most difficult enigma to reconcile in any human’s life. Today, we look at prayer’s place in the middle of pain. But viewed through the lense of the eternal nature of our souls and God’s divine story and purposes with special guest, Kelsey Lee Thomas.
