Below are links to my latest video presentation and audio podcast, entitled “God and Suffering: A Logical Perspective”. This follows on from a previous podcast, entitled “Toward A Theology of Suffering”. Why am I banging on about suffering at the moment? Because it is the biggest roadblock to faith for many people and the most potent weapon in the atheist’s arsenal.
But there are answers.
In this latest episode I begin by examining common arguments raised by sceptics. The prevalence of suffering in our world prompts some people to conclude that God is either powerless or evil or non-existent. But is there another alternative? This video and podcast reveals how these three common explanations for suffering are unreasonable and unsupported by the balance of observable evidence. A fourth explanation for suffering is proposed: one that takes into account the full spectrum of available evidence and which is logically consistent. This episode approaches the complex topic of suffering from a dispassionate, logical perspective and offers an explanation that is rich in meaning and full of hope for mankind.
But be warned – it is 50 minutes long! So you might need to sit down with a cup of coffee or go for a long walk while listening to the podcast. I recommend the video version, however, because the slides and graphics are very helpful.

Before I go, let me give you a heads up about an upcoming video and podcast series. I have now finished preparing my new series, “Evidence for Belief”. It is a 22-part video and podcast series that examines in detail the wide array of evidence for God’s existence, including evidence from cosmology, astrophysics, genetics, microbiology, physics, chemistry, history, philosophy and even mathematics! With stunning visuals and loaded with expert testimony from world-renowned PhD scientists, this is a series that will strengthen your faith and challenge anyone who is sceptical.
This series has been made possible by the generous ongoing donation of a supporter, to whom I am deeply grateful. Keep an eye out for this series. I will be releasing a new episode each week, starting from 25th October 2024.
