What does it mean to say that God governs all things—even the smallest details? In this episode, we explore the philosophical and biblical foundations for the doctrine of meticulous providence, the view that God actively and purposefully sustains, directs, and governs every event in creation. We begin by laying out the necessary categories that must exist if meticulous providence is to be rightly understood—such as divine sovereignty, creaturely agency, causation, time, and the distinction between God's will of decree and will of command. We then turn to the Scriptures to see how this doctrine is anchored in the biblical narrative, drawing from passages like Hebrews 1:3, Colossians 1:16-17, Acts 17:28. This episode is for thinkers, pastors, and everyday believers who want to better grasp how God’s sovereign rule intersects with real human decisions, suffering, prayer, and the moral order. Whether you're wrestling with big questions or teaching on God's providence, this conversation is designed to stretch your mind and ground your soul.
