About this listen
Thomas Boston (1676-1732) fue un destacado teólogo y clérigo escocés. Sus obras recopiladas, que abarcan 12 volúmenes, engloban completas exposiciones teológicas. Sin embargo, paralelamente a estos extensos tratados, Boston escribió textos concisos, claros y con un enfoque pastoral, especialmente El infortunio en la providencia: La manifestación de la soberanía y sabiduría divina en las aflicciones humanas. Esta obra fundamental, basada en Eclesiastés 7:13, se presenta como un profundo tratado pastoral, instando a la reflexión sobre la mano divina en las complejidades de la vida humana.
En el contexto del texto, Boston utiliza el término ‘providencia’ para referirse a nuestras circunstancias de vida designadas divinamente, y el término ‘infortunio’ para describir las adversidades inesperadas que pueden angustiarnos o desconcertarnos. El objetivo de Boston es brindar una sabia orientación pastoral a aquellos que atraviesan las tribulaciones a las que Pablo se refiere como “los sufrimientos de este tiempo presente” (Rom. 8:18).
El infortunio en la providencia simboliza la agudeza pastoral, emanando de las tribulaciones personales y experiencias ministeriales de Boston. Dada tal profundidad e intuición, no es de extrañar que figuras ilustres como Jonathan Edwards consideraran a Boston como un teólogo excepcional.
"El infortunio en la providencia es medicina pastoral preparada en el laboratorio de los propios sufrimientos personales y ministeriales de Boston. No es de extrañar que Jonathan Edwards considerara a Boston «un verdadero gran teólogo». ¡Y realmente lo era!"

"En este libro, Thomas Boston explica cómo la soberanía y la sabiduría de Dios se manifiestan en las aflicciones de los hombres. En su enfoque de este difícil tema, él es tanto teológicamente preciso como pastoralmente tierno. Boston no comete el error de intentar proteger innecesariamente la reputación de Dios, ni se va al extremo opuesto de hacer de Dios un espectador compasivo pero impotente. Por el contrario, Boston introduce a Dios de lleno incluso en los acontecimientos más desastrosos, y muestra cómo Él está involucrado activamente tanto en los sucesos como en su resolución. Que la sabiduría de los tiempos sea un bálsamo en estos momentos de crisis y desconcierto. Que el Dios de toda consolación sea tu consuelo en tiempos difíciles."

Story
Beth and her gentle, kind husband Frank are happily married, but their relationship relies on the past staying buried. But when Beth’s brother-in-law shoots a dog going after their sheep, Beth doesn’t realize that the gunshot will alter the course of their lives. For the dog belonged to none other than Gabriel Wolfe, the man Beth loved as a teenager—the man who broke her heart years ago. Gabriel has returned to the village with his young son Leo, a boy who reminds Beth very much of her own son, who died in a tragic accident.

Story
Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.
