You may be processing the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk, seeking perspective through a biblical lens.
In this program, Ralph Drollinger takes us to the book of Job and several more passages as we learn about Theodicy—how God remains sovereign even though evil exists in the world.
Ralph reminds us that Job’s life stands as a powerful example of how to respond when our world falls apart. Job trusted in God’s character and persevered with unshakable confidence.
Together with host Frank Sontag, Ralph unpacks key takeaways from Job for public servants and all believers:
- Trust before reasoning
- Recognize heavenly matters affect earthly lives
- The righteous will suffer
- Don’t judge spirituality by circumstances
- Perseverance is primary
- God’s essential nature is good
- God is faithful and blesses the righteous
As we encounter suffering and persecution, will we, like Job, stand with steadfast faith in the God who has revealed Himself through His Word?
