Why isn't God stopping your pain?

In this thoughtful conversation, Mike Spiegel tackles one of life’s hardest questions: if God is good and all-powerful, why do children suffer, and why does evil exist at all? He explains that God did not create evil but created real freedom, and with real freedom comes the possibility of wrong choices, brokenness, and pain. Drawing on the stories of Job and Daniel, Mike shows that God does not always remove suffering, but He often meets His people in it, calling them to trust His wisdom even when they cannot yet see the bigger picture. It’s a deeply pastoral reminder that pain is not always pointless, and that faith can hold firm even in the middle of unanswered questions.

Take a Seat

In this sermon, Erwin Nanasi uses the image of being seated to ask a searching question: where do we place our attention, our allegiance, and our hearts? Drawing from Isaiah 55, Psalm 1, Mark 6, and the throne room scene in Revelation, he shows that our posture shapes our worship, and that settling into the wrong influences can slowly dull our obedience to God. Yet the heart of the message is grace: Jesus has already done the work, is seated in victory at the right hand of the Father, and invites us to be seated with Him in acceptance rather than performance. This sermon matters because it calls listeners to examine what - and who - is sitting on the throne of their lives, and to respond to God’s invitation to come, listen, and live fully for Him.
