How Does God Use Evil for Good?

John Ankerberg
By Dr. Dillon Burroughs: In program 1 of Pandemics, Plagues, and Natural Disasters: What is God Saying to Us? Dr. John Ankerberg interviews Dr. Erwin Lutzer regarding the many ways the Covid-19 crisis has changed our world—and how God is working through it. Some claim the pandemic is a judgment from God. Others suggest God seems to be uninvolved and unconcerned. How does God work in times of trouble? How does God use evil for Good?

One enduring story that chronicles how God works through evil is found in the life of Joseph. The final chapters of Genesis reveal his journey from favored son to slave to prisoner, and then ultimately serving as second in command of the nation of Egypt. As we reflect on Joseph’s story, we find three principles that can apply to other times God’s people face evil.
