But… Why do Bad Things Happen to Good People?

Bible study for young people with questions about suffering.

It can be hard to make sense of tragic or painful events – especially as a young person who might be thinking seriously about these topics for the first time. It leaves us wondering: if God loves the world so much, why do bad things happen to good people?

This book will help you start exploring this question by looking at some of what the Bible says about suffering, death, sin and the natural world.

Studies in this book:

  • But… is illness and death ever a punishment?
  • But… does suffering have a purpose?
  • But… What about evil people?
  • But… What about accidents and natural disasters?

Each study is accompanied by resources for extra study, and with reflective materials to lead you into personal prayer and journaling, and suggestions for intergenerational group discussion.
