When it comes to suffering, a lot of Christians just don't know what to say. When they do say something it can be taken the wrong way. In this short video, Tullian Tchividjian, Dave Furman, and Paul Tripp talk about what not to say when someone is going through suffering. I love what Tullian says in the beginning of the video about Job's three friends, "Job's friends were great counselors, until they opened their mouth."
