Life After the Phone Call: If God Is Good, Why Did My Child Die? Tim & Aileen Challies
Podcast: FamilyLife Today®Published On: Tue Mar 03 2026
Description: On what should have been his son’s wedding day, Tim & Challies stood at a graveside and read the wedding speech he never got to give. Months earlier, 20-year-old Nick had collapsed and died without warning. If God is good, why is the future we imagine buried? When the life we plan is gone and peace feels like a promise meant for someone else, is faith strong enough for the life we'd never choose?
