## Resource

Why does God allow suffering? It’s one of the hardest questions of faith. And in Job 38–42, God finally responds. But Job doesn’t get an explanation. He gets an encounter. In Week 3 of A Sufferer’s Guide to God, Pastor Jon explores what we do when there are no answers — and how God meets us not with reasons, but with presence. If you’re walking through grief, loss, confusion, or pain that doesn’t make sense, this message is for you. God doesn’t always give a reason for suffering. But God never lets suffering go unanswered. 📖 Job 38–42 📍 Soul City Church | Chicago
