EP 15 | Why Does God Let Bad Things Happen To Good People? | Suffering, Faith & Finding Hope in Jesus Christ
If Heavenly Father loves His children, knows everything, and has the power to perform miracles… why does He let bad things happen to good people? Why do innocent people suffer? Why do children get hurt? Why do terrible things happen to good families? And when we pray for help but the storm doesn’t stop, does that mean God doesn’t care?

EP 12 | THE PLAYBOOK | Recognizing Satan’s Tactics & Finding Strength in Jesus Christ
What if you could recognize temptation before it became a problem? Imagine you're getting ready for the big game. You don't wait until game day to learn the plays. You study the game film.
