Why Does God Let Bad Things Happen?

Three hosts—a boomer, a Gen Xer, and a millennial—examine the age-old problem of evil, pain, and suffering: if God is all-powerful and all-good, why does suffering exist?

They discuss common answers (free will, theodicies, Genesis, Job), the meaning of Jesus’ suffering, and the pastoral response of presence and sacrificial love, emphasizing compassion over easy answers.
