Unjust Suffering (Re-airing)
Join Janet and Jocelyn as they explore the transformative power of God’s hesed love—His steadfast, covenant-keeping kindness—in life’s hardest moments. When suffering comes, whether from the consequences of another’s sin, unexpected accidents, global crises, or the ache of living in a fallen world, it often feels profoundly unfair. Yet, in the midst of struggle, looking to Christ’s example and His compassionate heart offers a fresh perspective and anchors our hope. This heartfelt conversation is a timely reminder that, no matter the circumstance, God’s faithful love reorients our hearts, guides our response, and leads us toward lasting hope.
Joyful Journey is taking a hiatus on recording new episodes for the next several months. This is a season of regrouping and refocusing for us and we appreciate your patience as we do this. That means we will not be airing our quarterly recaps on each of the gospels as we anticipated, but don’t let that stop you from digging into the gospels! We’re taking this opportunity to share some previously released episodes with you. If you are a newer listener, we’re excited for you to hear some of these earlier episodes and for our long-term listeners, we are hoping that these episodes will be an encouragement to you once again! We look forward to returning in the future so stay tuned!
