When Bad Things Happen to Good Texans: Where Was God? – Rabbi Shoshanah Conover
Update: 2025-07-14
Description
In this sermon recorded live from Shabbat on July 11, 2025, Rabbi Conover reflects on the devastating floods in Texas that claimed over 100 lives, including children at a beloved summer camp. Grappling with the age-old question—where is God when tragedy strikes?—she weaves personal stories, Jewish wisdom, and teachings from Rabbi Harold Kushner and Buddhist tradition to explore how we find meaning in suffering.
Rather than searching for unanswerable reasons, Rabbi Conover challenges us to respond with compassion, presence, and action. What does it mean to be God’s hands in a world still shaped by chaos?
