Can God Be Trusted?: When Circumstances are Beyond Control
Sunday, 22 March, 2026
Sunday Gathering March 22, 2026Ryan Kenny (Job 42:1-6)Life has a way of breaking our assumptions. Good people suffer. Hard work doesn’t always pay off. Prayers go unanswered. And when things fall apart, the easy explanations don’t just feel thin—they can feel insulting. The book of Job begins where many of us find ourselves: asking honest questions in the middle of real pain. Not “How do I fix this?” but “Is the world actually fair?” and “If God exists, can God be trusted when life makes no sense?”This ancient story doesn’t rush to defend God or explain suffering away. Instead, it invites us into a raw conversation about grief, anger, silence, and the limits of human understanding. Job challenges the idea that life is a simple equation—and dares us to consider a different kind of trust, one not rooted in outcomes but in humility, honesty, and wonder. Whether you believe in God, doubt God, or aren’t sure what you believe at all, this series creates space to wrestle with life’s hardest questions without pretending they’re easy.
