Randomness Happens For A Reason: What The Arbitrary Experiences Of Life Reveal About The Heart Of God

You know the universe is infinitely complex—but do you know why?

You know bad things happen to good people—but do you know why?

As a pastor for over three decades, Dillon has seen it all. He’s counseled the brokenhearted, celebrated the hopeful, and wrestled with the big questions that keep us up at night.

After all this, he’s come to a surprising conclusion: the key to unlocking the greatest mysteries of the universe isn’t knowledge—it’s grace.

Sure, knowledge can tell us what the universe is like, but grace tells us why. Yes, life can seem arbitrary, even futile, but once again, grace tells us why.

If you’ve ever struggled to reconcile faith with reality, wrestled with uncertainty, or simply longed for meaning in a world that often feels like a cosmic coin toss, grab your copy of Randomness Happens for a Reason and discover how the “why” changes everything.

On this journey, questions about the random nature of life take center stage. Is randomness the blind director of unplanned marvels, as some assume? Is it a mere facade, adding a layer of mystery to God’s true intent, as others assert? Or is it the practical extension of God’s grace, setting the stage for man’s redemption?

In these pages, the case will be made that even the laws of disorder and decay are best understood as the brainchild of a Creator, and that, while order and design reveal the mind of God, it is the arbitrary nature of life that reveals the heart of God.
