How can a loving, holy God allow wickedness to flourish?
This is the question Habakkuk has been wrestling with, and in chapter 2 God pronounces a series of five “woes” (judgments) upon the Babylonians. His promise? Evil would be dealt with, and justice would be done.
Tune into this episode as Adam, David, Corina, and Rachel discuss what it means to live by faith in a season of trial and the perfection of God’s justice, even when it seems delayed.
