We're taking a break from our Women's Voices series this week to have an important conversation with Thomas Oord, theologian and author of the book, "God Can't".  In this episode we talk about COVID-19 and the many memes floating around the Internet arguing that the pandemic is the latest installment of God's judgement against sin.

Friends, this week we sit down with Carol Howard Merritt to talk to her about her book "Spiritual Wounds".  And since we're in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic we also talk about how some Christian's insistence that the virus is a result of God's anger and wrath has the destructive power to wound people who are in a fragile state of mind.
