This is the tenth week of a teachings series I began in 2024 for the young adults ministry of our church: Kingdom Young Adults. 

This week we discussed one of the most complicated and argued problem facing the message of Christianity, the problem of evil. If God is so good, then why do bad things happen in the world. The doctrine of Sovereignty is not understood, and rarely called upon to answer some of life's toughest questions. In this week, we discussed the two major views on sovereignty, and a third and more Biblical way of approaching the sovereignty of God. We pray this blesses you if you have been walking through a difficult season and to know that you can trust the Rock of your salvation.

We began this teaching series entitled "The Kingdom Code" after a sense that what was missing in the young adult Christian landscape of modern American Christianity and specifically our own, was not so much the desire for Spirit-filled awakening and experience, but a deep abiding knowledge of the core foundational doctrines of our faith and a respectful attitude towards learning the tradition that came before us.

So "The Kingdom Code" is just that: 25 weeks of the core doctrinal beliefs that have carried the church since its inception. We'll be talking about doctrine, creation, scripture, salvation, sin, hell and eternity, and we'll talk about it together. 

We can't wait to hear what you think, so please connect on social media at @swteachingpod or if you'd like to listen to this on it's home podcast, check out @kingdom_youngadultsnj or our Kingdom Young Adults podcast, here on Spotify.

Be blessed, and we pray that this teaching helps you Encounter Jesus and Counter the Culture.
