How do you respond when things don’t go as planned? What do you do when unexpected suffering shows up? When the doctor calls you in after a normal physical and hits you with the news you never thought you’d hear. When your teenager has been out with friends and the sheriff shows up at your door and asks you to sit down. When your spouse, seemingly out of the blue, tells you they are no longer in love with you and that they are leaving you for someone else that they’ve been with for some time now. How do you handle life when your smoke alarm goes off at 2AM and you are forced out of your home? What do you do when your reputation is unjustifiably tarnished because of a toxic conflict with a neighbor, co-worker, or parent? What do you do when suffering shows up? Who do you call? Where do you run to and take refuge? Where is God? How do we view this in terms of being a follower of Jesus Christ?
