Maybe no question has occupied the minds and imaginations of theologians and ordinary Christians more over the centuries than the question of suffering. We are always straining to go back behind every experience of suffering to try and understand where it came from and why. But in our gospel today Jesus shifts our perspective and wants us to look forward. Maybe it’s there, he suggests, that we can find more satisfying insight on this age-old conundrum.
