  • The more you listen, the more you like.

    This is a great podcast that covers a wide range of Christian topics, all with the family in mind. By family I mean more than just the nuclear family but the world wide family of God as well. Catherine is an excellent communicator, and an entertaining host, plus she always seems to have throughly researched the topics she covers. The more you listen, the more you like. You will be informed and entertained at the same time. It might just be one of the best podcasts you’ve ever heard.

  • Helpful resource for Christian parents

    As a Christian parent it’s really hard to raise my kids in this world. So glad there is a resource for parents that is faith based and backed up with scripture.

  • Wonderful/Outstanding

    I LOVE this podcast. There are diverse topics, and I love the studies substantiated by evidence and facts. In a very crazy world, it is very important to stay educated on what the Bible says and be aware of the schemes and lies of the enemy springing from cultural ideologies.

  • Amazing show

    I am so thankful for this podcast. Catherine clearly spends much time thinking about how to raise our kids in today’s culture. I love her apologists background. She’s answering questions parents have about how to raise our kids in an age that looks so different than our own.

Q: How do you ensure that a show is both educationally sound and spiritually meaningful for kids?

How Can a Good God Allow Evil & Suffering? (w/ Dr. Douglas Groothuis) - Archive Ep. 66
Q: Is there a way to know the point of suffering, or is it entirely mysterious?
The broader case rests on background evidence for a Creator and for a providential order; suffering is not wasted in God's economy, and believers can trust God's goodness even when the exact purposes are beyond full comprehension, especially in light of biblical revelations about redemption through Christ.
How Can a Good God Allow Evil & Suffering? (w/ Dr. Douglas Groothuis) - Archive Ep. 66
Q: Why would God create a world with free will if it leads to evil and suffering?
While we don't have a definitive, exhaustive answer, the framework is that humans are responsible moral agents whose actions can bring about genuine goods (redemption, character, relationship), and God can bring about greater goods through redemption and eventual judgment, even if sin is involved.
