Well, hello there, and welcome back. I'm Justin Briley, Premier's Theology and Apologetics

editor, and this is the show brought to you by Premier, SBCK, and NTWRITES Online.

And it of course gives you a fortnightly dose of Tom's Thornton theology.

But as you'll hear in a moment, you'll be getting double the NTWRITES very soon.

We're very excited. You've got an exciting announcement to make.

But today on the show bringing you part two of the questions that you've sent in on pain and suffering.

So last time was more a sort of theological thing, a reflection on some of the questions that came in.

This time more of a pastoral angle on some of your questions around grief, mental health,

and someone who even says, I wish I didn't exist. Well, I hope that you find today's show helpful.

So let's say we've had some exciting news that by the end of February this year,

we're aiming to bring you this podcast, not just fortnightly, but weekly.

Yes, that's all down to your support of the show, making that possible.

So you'll be hearing more from me about that next time.

But twice the amount of Tom in your podcast feed, who could object to that?

And I will be sitting down very soon with Tom to ask some more questions.

So this is a great time to sign up and make sure that your question is in the running to be asked.

When you sign up, get subscribed to the newsletter.

You'll receive the link that lets you ask a question of Tom.

We can't ask them all, of course, but we do see them all and we try to make sure we cover a wide range of issues.

And if you want one tip, do keep your question concise into the point that always helps with our selection process.

So if you'd like to subscribe to the newsletter for the bonus content as well,

press the prize draws and indeed to ask a question, it's the usual place.
