Why Me? Why, God?

Understanding the Deeper Meaning & Life-changing Catholic Teaching on Redemptive Suffering

The instructor for this course is Dr. Troy Hinkel from Holy Family School of Faith. You can listen to an audio recording of his teaching each week with the exception of week three. Past participants have found that listening to the audio recording with headphones work well but they are not necessary. There are PowerPoint slides to go along with the teaching each week. I have also included a transcript of each week’s lesson.

On this page you will find the three items used in this session:

Why Did Jesus Have to Suffer?

We know that Christ died for our sins to save us from hell but, if one drop of his blood could have saved us, why did He have to suffer the way that he did?
