The Lord is Good even when my life is not

When disaster strikes and tragedy hits your life, where do you turn? In this powerful message filmed in the aftermath of a devastating tornado, Lead Pastor Allen Bonnell addresses the hard questions we all face during times of suffering and loss. Why does God allow bad things to happen? How can we find hope when everything falls apart? What is God's purpose in our pain?


Drawing from the powerful example of the prophet Jeremiah in Lamentations 3, Pastor Allen reveals how God's faithfulness remains constant even when our world is turned upside down. This isn't just theory - it's truth tested in the fires of real tragedy, as Emmanuel Baptist Church opened their doors to disaster relief volunteers and ministered to tornado victims firsthand.

You'll discover how trials can actually strengthen the church, help the hurting, and point others to Christ.
