Protesting God – Is it Kosher? A conversation with Joshua Brumbach | EP 11
Does the God of the Bible allow people to protest Him? Is it okay to vent frustration, hurt, and even anger toward God? Sadly, many people have been hurt and even lost faith because of religious perspectives that discourage or condemn protesting God in any way. In this episode of the Game Changers Forum, we will discuss “protest toward God” with Joshua Brumbach, who has not only dedicated his doctoral studies to this topic but has personally experienced the pain and the reward that comes from wrestling with God.
