Join us for an insightful and uplifting conversation on the complexities of life and the power of hope. Our special guest, Joel Thomas, lead pastor at Buckhead Church, joined Chris and Christy today on the Lighthouse Podcast. Joel and his wife, Jenn, live in Georgia with their four children - Talan (16), Gentry (14), Kason (9), and Nixon (7).
Whether you are a believer or not, today's topic is one we all wrestle with. This episode will explore the issue of why bad things happen to good people. Our conversation begins with a discussion on the definition of "bad things" and whether or not we are good judges of what is truly bad. We then define what being a "good person" means and how our perceptions can shift gratitude.
Joel shares his experiences and examples of finding purpose in difficult situations. We end our discussion on a positive note by exploring the concept of genuine hope and how it can provide comfort and inspiration in times of adversity. Be encouraged, as true hope is available to you!
