1. John is a friend who asks, "If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why does He allow suffering and evil in the world?"

John is oblivious to the fact that God has given us free will and the ability to choose between love and fear.

The challenges and suffering in the world are a result of human choices.

2. Lisa is another friend who asks, "Why do people always get defensive when someone criticizes their work?"

Lisa is oblivious to the fact that our defensiveness is a result of our own insecurities and fear.

3. Jane is a student who asks, "Why would I forgive someone who hurt me?

Jane is oblivious to the fact that forgiveness is not about letting the other person off the hook, but about her releasing the burden of anger and resentment she carries within herself.

Ideas leave not their source.
