Why Did God Create Satan if He Knew He Would Rebel?

In this episode of the Foundation Worldview Podcast, Elizabeth Urbanowicz addresses a profound question from an 8-year-old: "Why did God create Lucifer if He knew Lucifer would rebel?" Elizabeth walks listeners through how to respond when children ask tough questions about God's plan and the existence of evil. She explains how to affirm a child’s curiosity, discern the root of their question, and guide them in biblical truths about God's character. With Scripture as the foundation, Elizabeth encourages parents to help their children understand that, while we may not know all the answers, we can trust in God’s goodness and His ultimate plan for redemption. Tune in for practical guidance and recommended resources for deeper exploration.
