Is Your God Good? Special Guest Dave Jackson

In this timely—and thought-provoking!—conversation, Jackson addressed one of faith’s most challenging questions: how can we reconcile belief in a perfectly good God with the reality of suffering, unanswered prayers, and troubling depictions of God in Scripture? He also explored the character of God, the problem of evil, and the way Jesus Christ reframes our understanding of divine goodness.

This interactive Zoom event invited participants to engage directly with Jackson after the interview, asking questions and exploring these vital themes together. Whether you’re a long-time believer or a skeptic, this conversation was enlightening.
