Mysteries of Mercy

FROM THE ARCHIVES // We tend to either accuse God like Job, or oversimplify God like his friends. We tend to either reduce Him to what fits in our boxes of black and white, or deduce that He can’t be good if He doesn’t fit there. In the end, God assured Job that his friends got it wrong in their haste to explain suffering. We want this story to explain the “why” behind affliction, but that’s not what it does. It invites us into a gray area of trust in God, while we don’t comprehend His ways, while we don’t see the whole picture or plan. It invites us to steward the mysteries of God’s justice and kindness in a chaotic and broken world. Listen to the audio recording of "Mysteries of Mercy" by Autumn Crew now.
