#271: Can I Be Okay With God's Ways When They Don't Make Sense? With Taylor Turkington
Manage episode 382787904 series 2442165
Sometimes we can become overwhelmed with all of the brokenness in our world, right? Chaos, injustice, and corruption surround us, powerful people take advantage of the weak, and societies overlook or mistreat those who desperately need help.
As people who trust an all-powerful God, it’s natural to ask, “God, aren’t you going to help?” or “God, why are you allowing this to happen?” Well, when we lift these questions to Heaven, we’re not alone. Our words closely resemble those of the distressed prophet Habakkuk.
So… do you know what that means? It means today we’re geeking out about this minor prophet, and author Taylor Turkington is leading the way.
She’ll unveil loads of encouragement within this tiny book of the Old Testament, teaching you to pay attention instead of looking away, lament instead of numbing out, and ask with expectation instead of avoiding God altogether.
