Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People? | S1 Ep. 6

Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People? - Kingdom Culture Podcast In this episode of the Kingdom Culture Podcast, we tackle one of the most frequently asked questions in Christianity: If God is good, why do bad things happen to good people? We explore how sin entered the world through Adam and Eve's disobedience and how it impacts humanity. We also discuss the concept of goodness through the lens of Jesus' teachings, using examples such as Job's suffering and Jesus' own experiences with pain to illustrate that righteousness does not exempt us from suffering. Finally, we offer guidance on how to handle suffering by clinging to scripture, inviting God into the pain, and finding community support. Tune in for a deeper understanding and practical advice on navigating faith in challenging times. 00:00 Introduction and Today's Big Question00:47 The Problem of Evil and Suffering02:16 The Origin of Sin and Its Consequences05:54 Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?07:40 The Example of Job and Jesus09:47 Finding Purpose in Suffering11:24 Practical Steps and Encouragement13:12 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Visit Renew.org to sign up for our email newsletter and be the first to know about new content, books and resources.  Get our Premium podcast feed featuring all the breakout sessions from the RENEW gathering early.  https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/
