Father Dom explores the topic of suffering and its significance in the Christian faith from his homily from the 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time. He shares his personal experience of clinical pastoral experience and the profound impact it had on him. He then delves into the book of Job and discusses the lessons it teaches about suffering and faith. James emphasizes the counter-cultural view of suffering and the importance of embracing it as a means of drawing closer to God. He also highlights the role of Jesus in understanding and redeeming suffering. The episode concludes with a call to respond to the question of evil with a willingness to fight for good.
