  • Part 8 - Jesus, the sufferign God from the series "Where is God in all the suffering?"
    Mar 19 2026


    Where is God in all the suffering? When pain, injustice, and loss seem overwhelming, this question brings us to the heart of the Christian faith.

    In this final session of Where Is God in All the Suffering?, Amy Orr-Ewing explores the uniqueness of Jesus — not as a distant observer of suffering, but as the one who enters into it. Drawing on Scripture, prophecy, and theology, she reveals how the story of Jesus is centred on a God who willingly suffers for humanity.


    This episode considers the cross, redemption, and hope — and why the Christian faith claims that God does not stand apart from our pain, but takes it upon himself, bearing suffering, sin, and brokenness in order to bring healing and restoration.


    This conversation is serious and sensitive in nature, but offered with care, honesty, and compassion.

  • Part 7 - Natural Disasters, Tragedy and a broken world from the series "Where is God in all the suffering?"
    Feb 10 2026

    Where is God when suffering comes through natural disasters? When earthquakes, famines, floods, and disease devastate lives, this question becomes impossible to ignore.

    In this session of Where Is God in All the Suffering?, Amy Orr-Ewing explores the challenge of natural suffering — not caused by human choice, but by the forces of the natural world itself. Drawing on real examples, science, Christian theology, and Scripture, she asks whether our understanding of God can make sense of a world where the very processes that sustain life can also bring destruction.


    This episode considers creation, human vulnerability, responsibility, and hope — and why the Christian faith claims that these natural events are not evidence of a meaningless world, but part of a creation that is both life-sustaining and broken, where human life remains deeply precious.

  • Part 6 - Violence from the series "Where is God in all the suffering?"
    Feb 9 2026

    Where is God when suffering is caused by the violence and evil of others?

    When children are abused, when women are violated, when war and cruelty devastate lives, this question becomes impossible to ignore.


    In this session of Where Is God in All the Suffering?, Amy Orr-Ewing explores the hardest form of suffering — not random loss or illness, but pain deliberately inflicted by human beings. Drawing on real stories, Christian theology, and Scripture, she asks whether our beliefs about good and evil are truly robust enough to account for the depth of harm people can do to one another.


    This episode considers justice, judgment, forgiveness, and hope — and why the Christian faith claims that God is neither distant from violence nor indifferent to victims, but has entered human suffering himself.


    This conversation is serious and sensitive in nature, but offered with care, honesty, and compassion.
