Theologian and pastor Dr. Barry Jones joins Kaitlyn to tackle a tricky question that leads us to some of the most beautiful passages in Scripture. Why does God allow evil things to happen in the world when he is sad about them? Dr. Jones explains how sin grieves God, and how God's sadness at our suffering can be a comfort to us. He also shows us how we can trust God even as we await answers to some of our biggest questions about God.
