Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?

Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People? addresses one of the most pressing and painful questions of the human experience through the lens of Scripture. Grounded in Romans 8:28, this study shows that suffering is not random or meaningless but operates within God’s sovereign and redemptive purposes. From the fall of creation to the sufferings of Christ, the Bible reveals that pain is used to refine faith, deepen communion with Jesus, and point believers toward eternal hope. In the midst of hardship, believers are called to trust the wisdom of a God who is always present, always purposeful, and always faithful.
