God, why is there suffering in the world?

from Soul Revival Church Podcast · host Soul Revival Church

Why does a good and powerful God allow suffering? It's the question that keeps people up at night, causes believers to doubt, and makes skeptics walk away. In this profound message from the "God, Why?" series, Jai doesn't offer easy answers, but offers biblical truth that transforms how we understand pain.Starting with D.A. Carson's stark observation that "if you live long enough, you will suffer," Jai guides us through Romans 8:18-30 to explore God's purposeful design behind our hardest seasons. He dismantles common misconceptions, that God lacks control or goodness, and reveals four transformative truths about suffering that change everything.Jai speaks with compassion to anyone walking through loss, illness, trauma, or despair. He addresses the lies we believe in isolation and extends a powerful invitation: suffering was never meant to be carried alone.He speaks on why redemption through Christ required a world with suffering, how natural disasters point to the moral horror of sin, why Christians aren't exempt from pain (and what our suffering demonstrates to the world), and how the cross represents the greatest act of love precisely because suffering exists.
