When God Seems Absent - W7

What do you do when life doesn’t go according to plan? The doctrine of providence reminds us that God isn’t distant from His creation. He sustains it, works within it, and guides it toward His purposes. In this message, guest preacher, Brandon Hale, explores God’s providence through the contrasting stories of Edmond Dantès and Joseph. Both experienced betrayal, imprisonment, and dramatic changes in circumstance, yet they responded very differently to what happened to them. Through Joseph’s story, we discover the importance of recognizing what is ours to choose and control—and what belongs to God alone. This message invites us to practice humility, trust God’s sovereignty, and find grace in the places where we cannot see what God is doing.
