The Breakdown | If God Is Good, Why do Bad Things Happen?
Wednesday, 8 October, 2025

It’s one of the hardest questions anyone can ask: If God is good, why do bad things happen? If He’s powerful enough to stop evil, why doesn’t He? This week, we sat down with Pastor James to break down his message “If God Is Good, Why Do Bad Things Happen?” Together, we unpack how the presence of evil doesn’t disprove God—it actually points us to Him. We talk through the difference between the evil around us and the sin within us, and how Jesus came not to condemn the world but to save it. We also answer some of the questions you might have been asking during the sermon: Why does God allow suffering? Why is there even evil in the world? And why are there natural disasters? If you’ve ever struggled to make sense of the brokenness in our world, this conversation will remind you that God’s story is bigger and evil is just a chapter.
