If you struggle to understand why bad things happen to us, if you have a hard time understanding why there is so much suffering in the world, or if you struggle to believe in a loving god because of all the pain and fear around us, this episode is for you.
Today I offer an alternative perspective to "everything happens for a reason" or "God works in mysterious ways" -- explanations that never really helped me much when I struggled with many of these concepts myself.
... Until one day I received a god-ordained message that helped me see things in a way that I had never considered before. I explain that alternative perspective in this week's episode.
The YouTube video that I came across that changed my perspective, and which I unpack in the episode, is here: https://youtu.be/Ym4Rpd72tq8?si=Bh9cO3NLLWVrYIK-
