S2:106 Numbers 31

If God is good, how do bad things happen? How could God command the children to be killed? Does God approve of genocide? How does God’s wrath show His love for His people? In this episode, Emma Dotter takes us through Numbers 31. In this passage, we are reminded of God’s absolute truth in every chapter of the Bible, despite the challenging subject.
