Is God really good… even when bad things happen? If you’ve ever wondered why painful stuff happens — or questioned whether God is actually behind it — you’re not alone. A lot of people wrestle with this, and honestly, it’s a really important question. In this episode of UncommonTEEN, Coach Jamie talks honestly about: * Why bad things happen in the world * What the Bible actually says about God’s goodness * Why God isn’t the one causing pain or evil * How free will and faith play a role * What it means to trust God when life hurts We also look at God’s names — Jehovah, El Roi, and Jehovah Jireh — to understand His heart. Not as distant or angry, but as loving, present, and for you. If you’ve ever felt unseen, confused, or unsure you can trust God, this episode is for you. 💛 You matter. God sees you. And He is good — not just in what we say, but in who He is. 👉 Subscribe for more honest conversations about faith, life, and being a teen who wants something real. ---------------------------------------- CHECK OUT PODCAST EPISODE 139 TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE BOOK OF JOB: HTTPS://WWW.UNCOMMONTEEN.COM/PODCAST/EPISODE/7EBB81D0/139-AMA-WHY-DOES-GOD-PROMISE-TO-PROTECT-US-IF-HE-ISNT-ALWAYS-GOING-TO [https://www.uncommonteen.com/podcast/episode/7ebb81d0/139-ama-why-does-god-promise-to-protect-us-if-he-isnt-always-going-to] #UncommonTEEN #TeenFaith #IsGodGood #ChristianTeens #FaithQuestions #GodIsGood #TeenPodcast #RealFaith #JesusForTeens Instagram: https://instagram.com/uncommon.teen [https://instagram.com/uncommon.teen] Coaching: https://uncommonteen.com/coaching [https://uncommonteen.com/coaching] Kingdom Grindset for Teen Guys: https://instagram.com/kingdomgrindset [https://instagram.com/kingdomgrindset]
