We've been studying the book of Job this week on Set Free ?' we've looked at the advice of Job's various friends, his wife, and Job's own honest words with God. And now, God finally speaks, and reveals why he's let his faithful servant suffer.

On Set Free this week, we've been studying the book of Job and the amazing example that Job has set for us in dealing with tragedy and tough times in our lives. But even Job wasn't afraid to speak his mind to God! He wasn't afraid to battle it out. And his relationship with God became even stronger as a result. We'll learn some more good lessons from Job's life today on Set Free with Ken Legg.Your support sends the gospel to every corner of Australia through broadcast, online and print media: https://www.vision.org.au/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What a blessing. What a truth!

Exodus 20:1-21 - This message addresses the age-old question: Why do bad things happen to good people? Suffering and hardship are not always a result of personal sin — but often a byproduct of living in a fallen world, spiritual warfare, the refining work of God, or simply the mystery of His sovereign plans. Like Job, Christians are called to respond not with anger or despair, but with worship, trust, perseverance, and reliance on God.

Disaster and death hits differently when you know Who holds you securely.

This is the recording of my short presentation and the Q&A at the second Conversations With Modern Stoicism event, hosted in July 2023 by Phil Yanov. Asked to give a short and provocative presentation about an issue that arises in the everyday applications of Stoicism, I chose to focus on a common mistake and distortion of Stoic philosophy and practice. Quite a few people think that Stoicism means that a person shouldn't exhibit or feel care, concern, or compassion for others who experience something that they view and react to as "bad". There are indeed some passages from Stoic authors that one can take out of context to justify such a stance. But when Stoicism is rightly understood, and when we look at other, equally authoritative passages, we see that the authentic Stoic position is to be compassionate and concerned with others.

When life falls apart, it's easy to think God's forgotten you. But what if your trials are actually divine setups for breakthrough? In this message, Pastor Benjamin breaks down four powerful reasons God allows pain — and how He can turn every betrayal, setback, and storm into purpose.If you've ever asked, “Why me?” — this message will change how you see your struggle forever.

It's one of the hardest questions anyone can ask: If God is good, why do bad things happen? If He's powerful enough to stop evil, why doesn't He? This week, we sat down with Pastor James to break down his message “If God Is Good, Why Do Bad Things Happen?” Together, we unpack how the presence of evil doesn't disprove God—it actually points us to Him. We talk through the difference between the evil around us and the sin within us, and how Jesus came not to condemn the world but to save it. We also answer some of the questions you might have been asking during the sermon: Why does God allow suffering? Why is there even evil in the world? And why are there natural disasters? If you've ever struggled to make sense of the brokenness in our world, this conversation will remind you that God's story is bigger and evil is just a chapter.

Why do bad things happen if God is good? It's a question we've all wrestled with at some point. If God is powerful enough to stop evil, why doesn't He? In “If God Is Good, Why Do Bad Things Happen?”, Pastor James unpacks how evil doesn't disprove God but points us to Him. We'll see that the real problem isn't just the evil around us but the sin within us—and how Jesus came not to condemn the world but to save it. God is overcoming evil through His people, and that changes everything. Everyone helping someone take steps to follow Christ.

Audio taken from the live recording of "Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?" - https://youtu.be/s3YGaIT8CU8Of all the questions that I have been asked throughout my decades of ministry, this question may be the most difficult. “Why do bad things happen to good people?”In light of the recent horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk, this perplexing question has repeatedly been asked of me, and is being asked around the world! As complex as this question is, the wisdom of the Bible provides an answer! Today I want you to open your Bible with me as we search for a scriptural answer.In today's teaching:1 - What does the Bible say about our fallen world?2 - Has God promised to keep Christians from all harm?3 - Why do bad things happen to good people?Key Scriptures for today's teaching: 2 Corinthians 4:17-18Other Scriptures referenced in this teaching: Romans 5:12; Romans 3:23; 1 John 5:19; John 10:10; John 16:33; Luke 18:19; 1 Corinthians 13:12; Romans 8:28; Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Please check out the playlist "New Beginnings" for important teachings - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl58_FjxELPxjnsL8CAtmama4&feature=sharedConnect with Tiff Shuttlesworth:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tiffshuttlesworth/ X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttleswor Learn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

When tragedy strikes, it can leave us asking the hardest questions: Where is God? Why does He allow suffering? In this video, I share a personal story that's a huge part of my testimony. It's the anniversary of my grandmother's murder — and I share what God has taught me through it. We also touch on the recent murder of Charlie Kirk and other tragic recent events.  We'll talk about: Why bad things happen in a broken world Where God is in the midst of suffering How He brings beauty from ashes and purpose out of pain The hope we have in His promises and the comfort He offers us You'll also hear powerful scriptures that have carried me through seasons of grief, including Romans 8, 2 Corinthians 1, James 1, and Revelation 21. Even when life feels overwhelming, God is present, He intervenes, and He redeems. My prayer is that this encourages you, strengthens your faith, and reminds you of the eternal hope we have in Jesus.

In this week's reflection, Cody revisits last week's conversation with Joe, who is facing a diagnosis of multiple myeloma. Cody explores the age-old question that Joe raised: If God is all-powerful and loving, why does suffering exist? Drawing on Joe's faith, the wisdom of Thomas Aquinas, and stories from other guests, Cody examines how adversity can lead to unexpected growth, meaning, and connection.
