The recent horrific murders at a Nashville Christian school compel Carl and Todd to discuss how believers should respond in the face of such inexplicable tragedy. It's safe to say that most people—believers included—don't consider in advance what they might say or do when answers are few. Our hosts offer precious biblical insight and pastoral experience to help us understand how we might represent Christ to others in such painful circumstances. Recent guest Mark Talbot knows well what it means to suffer loss. Crossway is offering a few copies of Mark's landmark book When the Stars Disappear as a giveaway. Enter here for the possibility of receiving one.

He is also the author of the Suffering and the Christian Life series published by Crossway, including When the Stars Disappear and Give Me Understanding That I May Live.Mark spoke once before on the podcast about suffering, but in this episode we turn our attention to the important and vital topic of reading.In America today, 54% of adults read below the equivalent of a sixth-grade level (Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy) and in Central Florida 1 in 4 read at or below a 5th grade level (The Adult Literacy League).Additionally, 14% of Americans in 2021 read their Bible daily while only 10% did so in 2022 (American Bible Society, The State of the Bible USA 2022 Survey). Lastly, Ligonier Ministries' bi-annual State of Theology Survey shows that 53% of U.S. adults believe that the Bible is not literally true, the first time there has been a majority who believe that in the survey, and up from 41% in 2014.The numbers don't lie, the poor state of reading and literacy in America today is alarming, especially among Christians.Many factors are contributing to America's literacy woes, including a plethora of distractions, celebrities discouraging reading, people's inclination to listen to audio-books instead of reflecting on written words, and a reliance on transactional (blogs, Tweets, short form content) instead of transformative (physical books, long form content) reading.Dr. Talbot discusses all of this and more in the episode. He also considers ways of reading well in an age of distraction including helpful tools and tips for training our minds to read and comprehend better.As Mark points out, understanding takes time and effort. It requires that we get outside ourselves to grow. However, when we take the time to allow books to work on us, they produce a new kind of life in us (Matt. 4:4).We also discuss the benefits of reading, how to both approach and read the Bible well, and we even look at thoughts from great minds past like Marcel Proust and John Milton to see what they can teach us about reading.Lastly, we consider methods for teaching reading in church and classroom settings, including an illuminating talk about how to study the Bible and some of our favorite book recommendations.Mark's insights provide a great synthesis on the current state of reading and what we can all do to become great thinkers. We look forward to having Dr. Talbot back on the podcast soon.
It's time for part 2 of our conversation with Mark Talbot about suffering and how God intends it for our good. They continue their discussion of Mark's books When The Stars Disappear and Giving Me Understanding That I May Live. Having been paralyzed since an accident when he was 17, Mark doesn't come to the subject as a passive observer, but as an active participant. This is not a mere philosophical question or academic exercise, but the deep wrestling of a believer in Jesus trying to understand the question as to why a good God allows our suffering. It's a question that many of us ask ourselves. Suffering is the door that for many leads to Jesus or turns them away from Jesus. How shall we view our suffering? What does God want to show us about Himself in our suffering? These are just some of the questions that they discuss.

Today we have Mark Talbot joining us on The Way Home podcast. Mark Talbot is the author of a multivolume series on theology of suffering. He has a comprehensive look on suffering in the scriptures and how we should think about it coming from his own experience with suffering. Today we dive into his latest…
Suffering causes us to ask hard questions about life. It also tests our faith as we question God's goodness, or even existence, in the reality of a deeply broken world. One of the most important factors in how we handle suffering is the story that we believe about the world and ourselves. The story we believe will determine the answers to those hard questions. My guest on today's show argues for the Christian worldview as the story we need in order to understand the condition of life and to live well in the face of suffering. I'm glad to welcome back Mark Talbot to discuss the second volume in his series Suffering and the Christian Life titled Give Me Understanding that I May Live: Situating Our Suffering within God's Redemptive Plan. Mark Talbot grew up in the Seattle area. When he was seventeen, he fell off a Tarzan-like rope swing and suffered a paralyzing accident that left him partially paraplegic. After graduating from Seattle Pacific College with a B. A. in English Literature, he completed his Ph.D. in Philosophy at the University of Pennsylvania. He began his teaching career as an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Calvin College in 1987 and then moved to Wheaton College in 1992, where he teaches courses on suffering, philosophical theology, philosophical psychology, David Hume, and Jonathan Edwards.

How is God at work in our stories and our suffering? How does human will relate to divine will? Dr. Mark Talbot, Professor of Philosophy at Wheaton College, joins the podcast to share his story, including suffering a major, paralyzing accident as a young man and going on to study philosophy as a Christian. Dr. Talbot also discusses his book When the Stars Disappear, the first in a four-book series on suffering and the Christian life.
Welcome to the podcast "When The Stars Disappear" hosted by Dr. Mark Talbot, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Wheaton College in Illinois.
If you've been in Charlotte for a few years, you've probably heard about the social mobility study that ranked the Queen City 50th out of 50 metropolitan areas for upward mobility. In other words, if you're born poor in Charlotte, you're likely to remain poor your whole life if you stay here. It is distressing, to say the least. Our next guest on the BrandBuilders Podcast is part of a collaborative effort to change that statistic. Mark Talbot is Director of Economic Development at Freedom Communities – a nonprofit that's more than a think tank – it immerses itself in the west Charlotte corridor with tools to change lives. With a resume in commercial real estate and ministry, his experience is the one-two punch Charlotte needs to tackle its social mobility problem.
In this two-part series addressing vocation and calling, Mark Talbot discusses the importance of a biblical view of calling and the value of spending time each day in God’s written word.

All of human life is accompanied by pain and difficulty. Christians are frequently caught off guard by the suffering they experience. They are unprepared either due to bad assumptions about the gospel's promises or by poor discipleship. Since everyone will face hardship in some form, it's important that believers understand what the Bible has to say about suffering in the Christian life. My guest on today's show is Dr. Mark Talbot and he has written an excellent book called When the Stars Disappear to help with this task. Mark Talbot grew up in the Seattle area. When he was seventeen, he fell off a Tarzan-like rope swing and suffered a paralyzing accident that left him partially paraplegic. After graduating from Seattle Pacific College with a B. A. in English Literature, he completed his Ph.D. in Philosophy at the University of Pennsylvania. He began his teaching career as an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Calvin College in 1987 and then moved to Wheaton College in 1992, where he teaches courses on suffering, philosophical theology, philosophical psychology, David Hume, and Jonathan Edwards. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, he served as the Vice-Chair of the Council for the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals as well as the Executive Editor of Modern Reformation magazine. More recently, he has published When the Stars Disappear: Help and Hope from Stories of Suffering in Scripture, which is the first of four volumes on Suffering and the Christian Life. The second volume, Give Me Understanding that I May Live: Situating Our Suffering within God's Redemptive Plan will be available in July of 2022. He has received the Leland Ryken Award for Teaching Excellence in the Humanities and is currently a Scholar for the Christian Scholars' Fund. He and his wife, Cindy, have one grown daughter.

There was one wooded winding road at the bottom of a hill right at the midpoint of my 20-minute jaunt to Jim's house. It seemed like a long way in my early teens, traversing the way only teens can do, unabashedly combining quick sprints, slow jogs, periodic skipping, and rarely a normal walking gait. Somehow this hollow at the bottom of the hill at the end of Murdstone Road seemed special, the terrain prohibiting the constant suburban sprawl for a few hundred yards as the woods grew wild. By this point in my journey, I was ready for some deeper reflection, a safe distance from the place of my fear called home. Few would have guessed the content of the conversation I permitted myself to speak out loud in this private hollow. Almost always it was filled with prayerful questions reflecting confusion about the pain and fear I lived in on Murdstone Road, one of the least safe places I ever have experienced in life. I asked God to do things on that stretch of road I would never have done in public. “Please God, just lift me up and transport me ten feet so I can know you really exist.” I'd close my eyes as I continued walking, waiting to feel the lift, and then laughing at my own silliness. I knew God didn't play those games, but I thought it would be nice and surely strengthen my faith in the midst of the pain nightmare I called home. Pain comes in a lot of forms. We could begin putting adjectives in front of the noun and be here all day, or we could turn it into an adjective and talk about all of the painful people, experiences, churches, muscles, thoughts…you get the idea. So today we turn for help to an unusual place. A real philosopher of all things. Let's welcome Dr. Mark Talbot to Church Hurts And.

Mark talks about Verra's scope and resources, new products, smart motorways and AI. Plus news and conversation with Tom Stone and Saul Wordsworth.Interview with Mark Talbot begins at 6:15
“I think growing organically in international markets is difficult when you're coming from, say the US or if you're coming from Australia and trying to build,” says Redflex CEO Mark Talbot on this week's Highways Voices podcast. “It can take a long time. I think if you do a basic make-or-buy type of analysis, you come to the analysis - is it worth it to go ahead and acquire an asset versus trying to develop it on your own?” Talbot is talking of his company's https://highways-news.com/enforcement-company-redflex-bought/ (recent acquisition) by American smart mobility company Verra Holdings announced earlier in June, which he negotiated during the lockdown. “That's a that's a pretty significant task to close an acquisition of this size, via Zoom and have multiple geos have to participate in multiple countries, [with] regulatory regulators sign off,” he explains “You get really good advisors, which we had on both sides, [and] you have, fortunately for me, talented management in each of the geos… that could carry on day-to-day and run the business service our customers, while the rest of us are dealing with an acquisition.” He talks about the importance of a great management team when running a global business without international travel, how he's kept the supply chain going during lockdown, and what his plans are for the future. The podcast also hears why ITS (UK)'s Women in ITS Forum has won this week's “Adrian's Accolade” plus Paul and Adrian's round-up of the news on the Highways News website this week.

If possible, the time to think Biblically about suffering is not when you are in the midst of it, but rather beforehand as a type of preparation. In this engaging and honest discussion we seek to equip believers with some helpful tools for thinking about suffering from different people in the Bible. How did they endure? What can we learn? What does God's love and sovereignty have to do with it? How can we help people that are suffering deeply? These are central issues to the Christian life. May we be a people who walk well with one another.

Mark Talbot discusses what the Bible has to say about suffering and the question that we all so quickly come to: "Why?" He shares some of what God has taught him through his own experience of profound pain, reflects on what we can learn from the story of Job in the Bible, and offers wise advice to the person currently wrestling to understand why God so often allows us to suffer in ways that push us to our limits and beyond.
Interview with Mark Talbot - When the Stars Disappear- Help and Hope from Stories of Suffering in Scripture Suffering and the Christian Life, Volume 1 From the moment Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating from the forbidden tree, suffering has been part of earthly life. Heartache, loneliness, sickness, depression, and death serve as constant reminders of this somber reality. Even Christians, who will know the glory of the life to come, can experience great suffering—sometimes so deep and disruptive that it dominates their consciousness and threatens to overwhelm their faith and hope. In When the Stars Disappear, Mark Talbot encourages readers to digest the lessons of some of the Bible’s great saints who, when faced with similar trials, learned to continue believing and hoping as they realized that God in his steadfast love continued caring for them.

Second Side Up is the longest-running radio show that never was - the story of a life recorded to tape and edited into weekly radio show instalments. For over four decades, Mark Talbot recorded scenes from his life and used them to create a cassette radio show, which he called Second Side Up. Complete with music, interviews and phone-ins, Second Side Up sounded like professional work, but not a single episode was ever broadcast. The tapes were distributed to a tiny network of friends and family, a unique correspondence that came to define Mark's life. The resulting archive of tapes is a unique autobiography in radio-show format. Between the songs, we meet the people in Mark's life; we hear him falling in love, growing old, mourning the death of the analogue era as his chosen medium becomes obsolete. Through all the changes, one thing remains constant - Mark's addiction to producing Second Side Up.
