Post a Comment On: Steps

With the size and content of a college theology text book, If Good is Good Randy Alcorn's response to the many questions that plague Christians.

The set-up is very similar to a Systematic theology book by Wayne Grudem, you will have 1 chapter, and within each chapter are shorter sections that go into great detail in discussing suffering and pain, and many others.
There are 11 sections total which include:Understanding the Problem of Evil and SufferingUnderstanding Evil: Its Origins, Nature and ConsequencesProblems for Non-Theists: Moral Standards, Goodness, and Extreme EvilProposed Solutions to the Problem of Evil and Suffering: Limiting God's AttributesEvil and Suffering in the Great Drama of Christ's Redemptive WorkDivine Sovereignty and Meaningful Human Choice: Accounting for Evil and SufferingThe Two Eternal Solutions to the Problem of Evil: Heaven and HellGod's Allowance and Restraint of Evil and SufferingEvil and Suffering Used for God's GloryWhy Does God Allow Suffering?Living Meaningfully in Suffering
Alcorn's talent is to take deep issues and bring them to our level of understanding. He uses words that make the hardest idea become simple yet profound.
This is not a book that you will finish in a day, let alone a week. You will want to pour over this text and open your Bibles to grow your understanding of having faith in the midst of suffering and evil.
