When God Doesn’t Appear To Make Sense to Us by Dr. James Dobson

July 18-20, 2023
Host: Dr. James Dobson

Part 1
Whether it has to do with sickness or death, a tornado or a divorce, certain traumatic events will happen in our lives that will make us question, “Why me, Lord?” On today’s classic edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson reminds us of the hope we have in our great and mighty God, despite the struggles we face. Romans 8:38-39 says, “For I am sure that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Part 2
What do the biblical characters David, Job and Hezekiah have in common? They all experienced a time where they did not hear from God and cried out to Him with the universal question of “Why?” Even while on the cross, Jesus asked His Father, “Why have You forsaken me?” On today’s classic edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson continues to walk us through this question of “Why?,” which we all have experienced in trying circumstances. Proverbs 3:5 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding.” In the face of life’s most difficult challenges, we can find hope in the Word of God.

Part 3
When going through trials, it’s easy to feel as if God has abandoned you. The truth is, God says in His Word that He will never leave you nor forsake you. It is His promise to all of us. On today’s classic edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson shares how “you can trust God even when you can’t track Him.” Isaiah 41:10 declares, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Discover how the Lord is using these seemingly insurmountable events in your life to deepen your relationship with Him.
