We don’t like pain.  So we try to avoid it or deny it, but we're still left hurting.  And yet our suffering presents an opportunity to encounter God and allow Him to redeem our pain.  Ed Stetzer talks with Liz Hall about her book, When the Journey Hurts: Finding Meaning in Suffering for Heart, Mind and Soul and how you can use theology, psychology and spiritual formation to teach you how to redeem that suffering in relationship with God and others.  Ultimately, it can lead you closer to Jesus on Ed Stetzer Live.
