Pastor's Cut: If God is good, why do bad things still happen?

In this episode of Pastor's Cut, host Melissa Schaser talks with Pastor Carrie Gleeson and one of CPC's Deacons about the difficult question, “If God is good, why do bad things happen?” as part of CPC's Asking for a Friend series. They reflect on the nature of suffering, unanswered prayer, and the redemptive power of Jesus’ sacrifice, emphasizing that while pain is inevitable, God’s presence and promises remain constant and trustworthy. Ultimately, they encourage listeners to embrace questions, sit honestly with grief, and anchor themselves in God’s unchanging goodness and community support.
