Wisdom's Way

Why Does God Allow Bad Things to Happen? | Ep. 25


Listen Later

In this deeply personal and powerful episode of Wisdom’s Way, Dr. Tim addresses one of life’s hardest questions: Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?

If you’ve ever faced loss, suffering, or moments where you’ve asked, “God, why?”—this message is for you.

Through Scripture and real-life perspective, this episode reminds us that:

  • We are not God—and we won’t always understand His ways
  • Suffering is real, even for the most faithful (like Job)
  • The better question may not be “Why do bad things happen?” but “Why do good things happen to sinners?”
  • God is working an eternal purpose far beyond what we can see
  • Pain is not wasted—God uses it for growth, ministry, and His glory

Most importantly, you’ll be pointed to the cross—the ultimate proof that God loves you and is not distant from suffering, but entered into it Himself through Jesus Christ.

This episode doesn’t answer every question—but it will help you trust God when you don’t understand.
