During the season of Lent at The Way, we will consider the problem of suffering. The question has been asked many ways: Why do bad things happen to good people? If God is good “all the time,” then why is there any pain at all? If God is all-powerful, why doesn’t God do something about suffering? This is perhaps the major stumbling block to faith that people have today. This series will challenge us to wrestle with this question as we consider scripture, Christian theology, and real life experience to come to terms with the problem of suffering.

Experience the Power
The Way’s first worship series of 2010, “Experience the Power,” will be an intensive study of Jesus’ miracles. What do the miracle stories teach us about Jesus? How are we to interpret them? Do the miracle stories force us to make a choice between faith and intellect? These are some of the questions—your questions, actually—that we will wrestle with in this series.
