Why Does God Allow Evil and Suffering in the World?

Some people believe you should never question your faith. But if you never ask questions, how else can you learn and grow?

Thinking people realize that asking questions is not a sign of weak faith. Instead, expressing your honest questions demonstrates that you care about your faith enough to wrestle with it.

Every week, you submitted a question, and each sermon will be based on one of the four most asked questions:

Aug 11- How do I love people who hate?
Aug 18- What does prayer actually accomplish?
Aug 25- Is Jesus really the only way to salvation?
Sept 1- Why would God allow evil and suffering in the world?

Good News for the Spiritually Traumatized

Most of us at some point have probably felt like an outsider, just a number, a nobody.

The Gospel of Luke is known as the gospel to the marginalized, people who were outcasts and treated as unimportant.

While teaching in his hometown of Nazareth, Jesus announces His mission to preach good news to the poor, freedom to the prisoners, recovery of sight to the blind, set the oppressed free, and proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor. Then Luke shows us what that means for you and me.

If you feel like a nobody, Jesus has good news for you. And in a world where many people feel like nobodies, God wants to announce good news to them through you.

This series was inspired by Adam Hamilton’s The Gospel of the Nobodies.
