God's Silence in our Suffering: Seeing Him Move when You Can't Hear His Voice

Are you walking through a season of suffering and instead of feeling God’s presence so profoundly, you feel his absence? Does it seem like when you’re hurting the most, God is silent?

You’re not alone.

So many people have walked through their darkest moments and wondered Where are you, God? From David to Job, Elijah to even Jesus on the cross, pain can make you feel totally alone when you need to feel the nearness of the Lord more than ever. What do these seasons of silence mean? What could God be up to in those moments where He seems quiet?

This masterclass will answer just that. In God's Silence in Our Suffering: Seeing Him Move when You Can't Hear His Voice with Catherine Fitzgerald, Nothing is Wasted Podcast Producer and Content Director, you’ll learn:

  • Why God may seem silent in your pain

  • How to see God when you can’t hear him

  • What you need most in those seasons of silence

God's silence can be jarring, but silence doesn't mean He isn't there. Sometimes we just have to learn to quiet ourselves to hear Him.
