Does Everything Happen for a Reason?

"Everything happens for a reason." We've all heard it, and maybe we've even said it. But what if this well-intentioned phrase actually distorts our understanding of who God is? In this episode, Scott, Jamie, Tammy, and Ellie wrestle with God's sovereignty, the reality of suffering, and what it looks like to navigate grief in a life-giving relationship with Jesus. Together, they explore the power of biblical lament, the importance of processing our pain rather than avoiding it, and how we can experience God's goodness even when our circumstances don't change. What if the hope we have isn't found in understanding why something happened, but in discovering that God is with us in the midst of it?
