Summary
All Things for Good by Thomas Watson provides the biblical answer to the contemporary question: Why do bad things happen to good people?
Thomas Watson, the 17th-century minister of St. Stephen's Walbrook, believed he faced two great difficulties in his pastoral ministry. The first was making the unbeliever sad in the recognition of his need of God's grace. The second was making the believer joyful in response to God's grace. He believed the answer to the second difficulty could be found in Paul's teaching in Romans 8:28 - God works all things together for good for his people.
First published in 1663 (under the title A Divine Cordial), the year after Watson and some 2,000 other ministers were ejected from the Church of England and exposed to hardship and suffering, All Things for Good contains the rich exposition of a man who lived when only faith in God's word could lead him to such confidence. Thomas Watson's exposition is always simple, illuminating, and rich in practical application. He explains that both the best and the worst experiences work for the good of God's people. He carefully analyzes what it means to be someone who "loves God" and is "called according to his purpose".

Truly a tonic for an anxious soul
This book was such a reassuring listen and for me quite a surprise find. It gently hammers home the Bible truth from Romans that “all things work together for good for those that love God and are called according to purpose”.

Very clearly read. Very pleased.
Very pleased to have found this audio book. Very good quality, I believe. Evidently can't be compared with a printed book, but I'm honestly very happy.

Truly encouraging and challenging
Although written 350 years ago, the truths in this book remain simple, challenging and encouraging.
I’m come away from this book spiritually refreshed and with many reminders of what brought me to Christ 55 years ago.
Whether you are a Christian or not, I heartily recommend this excellent, well written, easy to understand, and very well read book.
