Everything Happens For A Reason (And Other Lies I’ve Believed)

Inspired by the best selling book Everything Happens for a Reason: And Other Lies I’ve Loved (see link) our new sermon series explores five lies that we are tempted to believe as Christians:

“Everything Happens For A Reason And Other Lies I’ve Believed” preached at the Church of England on Norfolk Island, Sunday 28th April 2019
“We Do Church The Right Way And Other Lies I’ve Believed” preached at the Church of England on Norfolk Island, Sunday 5th May 2019
“Everything Happens For A Reason And Other Lies I’ve Believed” preached at the Church of England on Norfolk Island, Sunday 12th May 2019
“The Devil Made Me Do It And Other Lies I’ve Believed” preached at the Church of England on Norfolk Island, Sunday 19th May 2019
“A Decision Makes Me A Christian And Other Lies I’ve Believed” preached at the Church of England on Norfolk Island, Sunday 27th May 2019

Thirty-five-year-old Kate Bowler had finally had a baby with her childhood sweetheart after years of trying, when she began to feel jabbing pains in her stomach. She lost thirty pounds, chugged antacid, and visited doctors for three months before she was finally diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer. How can a good God exist, in the face of all the injustice and suffering in the world? This book describes, in a very honest way, her search for the answer to that question, as well as her experiences with doctors, relatives and her own thoughts whilst on her sickbed.
