When We Don't Have the Answers [Featuring Dr. Henry Cloud]

Why does God allow suffering? Is it possible that the pain in your body or the anxiety in your mind is rooted in something spiritual? In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr. Henry Cloud, best-selling author of the Boundaries books, joins Pastor Allen Jackson to wrestle with the hard truth that not every prayer is answered the way we hope—and not every struggle has a clear cause or a simple solution. Together, they challenge the common tendency to compartmentalize our lives into spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental categories. Whether we struggle with anxiety, chronic illness, relational wounds, or deep grief, the lines between the spiritual and physical are far more intertwined than we often realize. This conversation invites us to consider a more integrated, biblical perspective on health and a deeper trust in God’s purpose for our lives.
