Below is a resource that we created that has a collection of articles from different pastors and theologians on how we can view tragedy, suffering, and specifically coronavirus. They all come from different denominations and theological frameworks, so looking at all of them may help you figure out your own personal viewpoint. If you want to chat about any of them, all of us on staff would be happy to!

Beneath the list, you can also download this in PDF form.
