is god good?

Why does suffering exist? What's the point of pain? If God is good, and He makes all things work together for good, then why does He allow bad things to happen? With things like cancer, illness, pandemics, natural disasters, violence and so much more – how do we reconcile there being a good God with the reality of suffering?

For many of us, the only love we have known has come with all sorts of qualifiers, conditions, and timelines. 

And one of the challenges when it comes to knowing and fully embracing God’s love, is the seemingly fleeting and temporary nature of the love we often experience in this material world. With realities such as these, it’s no wonder why you might find it so difficult to believe that God’s love for you is fixed and unconditional. 

TEXT: Acts 21: 1-15

Suffering is hard. Most people do everything they can to avoid suffering. They try to ignore it, avoid it, fight against it, or even deny it's happening, but what if there is another option? Today we look at what that option is because the reality is, suffering is inevitable. Everyone goes through difficult seasons. How can we walk in those seasons well? How might God be working even in our suffering? Is there hope even in the hurt?
