Can there be meaning in suffering?

In this episode we interview Professor Angie Burks. Prof. Burks
is a graduate of the University of Michigan, Boston University
School of Law and was a Community Builder Fellow at the Harvard's
JKF School. She is a Senior Lecturer within OSU's College of
Engineering and has presented at the state and national level on
engineering ethics and the legal liabilities of electronic
communication.


Her Negotiations course within Northeastern University's distance
learning program has been delivered to over 800 graduate students
and executives in four parts of the world, including Europe, Asia
and the Middle East.


She was nominated three times for Indiana University's Trustees
Teaching Excellence Award and twice for Ohio State's Provost's
Award for Distinguished Teaching by a Lecturer. She notes that
the most important experience in her life was growing up in the
Sunday School program at Second Baptist Church in Columbus,
Indiana.


In this first episode of our interview with her, we ask her about
her work at Ohio State, her spiritual journey, and her experience
of suffering.
