When good happens in society — a government is fixed, slavery is abolished, or minorities given equality — is God secretly at work?

Over the centuries we’ve seen some amazing positive changes in our nation and around the world — plunging infant mortality rates, improved health, lengthening lifespans. We’ve seen the abolishment of some of the most inhumane practices. Of course, the world remains a fallen, hostile place, but what role does God play when we see these types of positive social changes? It’s a question to you, from a listener named Jim.

“Pastor John, hello! When something huge and good happens in a society — like a faulty government system is fixed, or slavery is abolished, or minorities are given more equal treatment, or anything of the like — is God secretly at work in that moment inspiring things to happen? What is God’s role in positive social changes?”
