Does disaster come from God? It's a question that has unsettled believers for generations, and Amos 3:6 brings it to the forefront with striking clarity.

In this episode of Pulpitless, Pastor Greg carefully examines what the prophet Amos meant when he asked, "Does disaster come to a city, unless the LORD has done it?" Together, we'll explore the biblical doctrine of God's sovereignty, the meaning of the Hebrew word ra, and why Scripture teaches that calamity is never outside of God's control—without ever making God the author of sin.

You'll also see how the stories of Joseph, Job, and ultimately the cross reveal that God can sovereignly work through suffering to accomplish His perfect purposes. Rather than leaving us with fear, this truth offers profound comfort: our pain is never random, our trials are never wasted, and nothing reaches us apart from the nail-pierced hands of our Savior.

If you've wrestled with questions about suffering, God's providence, or how to trust Him in difficult seasons, this episode will encourage you to rest in His sovereign care.
