Affirming God's Goodness Amidst Suffering, with Alan Noble

Welcome to the Trinity Forum Conversations podcast.

As we move through the season of Lent, we’re offering a series to help each of us prepare the way of the Lord. It’s a good time to take stock of our spiritual practices, and our guide today is the author and professor Alan Noble.

In his book, On Getting Out of Bed: The Burden & Gift of Living, Alan contends that simply deciding to engage with the world each day constitutes a declaration of the goodness of God:

“Now, there may come times when you are required by your suffering to radically depend upon others to carry you out of bed. My advice is to embrace those moments, knowing that you’ll carry your neighbor in return when the time comes.”

This episode is drawn from an Online Conversation recorded in 2023. We hope you enjoy the conversation.
