Anthony covers Chapter Nine, &quot;Cosmic Revolution&quot; of Zachery Porcu's &quot;Journey to Reality&quot; on the problem of suffering and evil. +++ AI Title and Summary: Keeping It Real About the Problem of Pain: Free Will, Moral Law, and the Ministry of Presence Beginning from a memorial service and C.S. Lewis\u2019&amp;nbsp;Problem of Pain, this talk wrestles honestly with Ivan Karamazov\u2019s challenge, the suffering of children, and what our visceral reaction to evil reveals about the moral law\u2014the \u201cTao\u201d or Logos\u2014written into our very being, which cannot be reduced to mere biology or sentiment. From there it explores free will as the costly condition of genuine love, the way Christ transforms suffering into a kind of sacrament, and how practices like fasting and the simple \u201cministry of presence\u201d allow us to stand with others in their pain as living icons of the God who is with us in every cross and every death.
