Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tsunamis, earthquakes, famines, diseases, wars -- these and other devastating forces lead Christians to ask painful questions. Is God all-powerful? Is God good? How can God allow so much innocent human suffering? These questions, taken together, have been called the "theodicy problem," and in this book Thomas Long explores what preachers can and should say in response ... he offers biblically based approaches to preaching on theodicy, guided by Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares and the "greatest theodicy text in Scripture"--The book of Job. - from book jacket.

Download or read book Why Do the Innocent Suffer? written by Michael R. Saia and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why Do the Innocent Suffer? If God is loving and powerful, why did He allow suffering to exist? If God is all loving, and all powerful, couldn't He stop all suffering? Why are innocent children born deformed? Why are there wars? What about tornadoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis? Doesn't God care about all the people who are suffering in the world? Peter Warren, Southwest USA Director of Youth With A Mission, says: I love Mike's passion to defend the Character of God and how he backs up every single point with the Word of God. The fact that he does this, instead of simply giving his own ideas or impressions, gives great authority to what he is saying. So many young people, which is the bulk of those I work with, have grown up with deep misunderstandings and questions about God's love when they see innocent people suffering. Very few of them have had any Biblically-based teaching on the subject. I wish every single one of them could read this book! Dean Harvey, Pastor, Teacher, and Missionary with Youth With a Mission, observes: Why Do The Innocent Suffer? is the most comprehensive discussion of this topic I have ever seen. Saia compares the various religious and philosophical reasons offered to answer this question, then solves the problem with a thoroughly Biblical answer. We might summarize the message of the book as an answer to the question of Moses in Genesis 18:25, "Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?" Mike's thorough exegesis of the book of Job is a highlight of the book, and would serve every pastor and teacher very well. Michael R. Saia had a teaching ministry as a missionary for seventeen years. He and his wife traveled extensively, teaching in missionary training schools, churches, and seminars. Mike is a published author with a book on counseling that won the "Book of the Year" award from Cornerstone magazine. Mike also authored Does God Know the Future?, Understanding the Cross, and Why Pray? Mike, his wife, Carol, and their son, Michael, live in Washington State.

Book excerpt: Bestselling Authors Tackle Difficult Issues for Believers and Doubters When it comes to the big questions about suffering and evil--Did God create evil? How could a good God allow evil? How could a loving God allow people to suffer?--Bruce Bickel and Stan Jantz don't pretend to have all the answers. But they do know how to wrestle with uncertainty and doubt. They welcome questions, and in these pages they ask some of the most important ones you have about suffering and evil. With candor, insight, and a disarming touch of humor, they provide some answers to these critical questions, while leaving enough space--and grace--for you to keep wrestling, asking, and seeking Truth. There is no shame in asking--after all, even some of the greatest men and women in the Bible had doubts. Don't let your questions go unanswered. What you find might just change your life.

Drought, earthquake, tsunami. Terrorist atrocities. War, genocide, poverty, famine. All we have to do is live long enough, and we will suffer in one way or another. In this new edition of an excellent, widely appreciated study, Don Carson addresses the issue of evil and suffering with sensitivity, pastoral concern and biblical insight. He helps Christians prepare for the day when they have to experience a 'frowning providence', and face it with faith and hope because of an unshakable trust in the providence of God.

Download or read book Avoiding Bitterness in Suffering written by Ronda Chervin and published by Sophia Institute Press. This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Ronda Chervin's son, Charles, ended his own life, he did so believing that it is pointless to endure inevitable suffering. In the wake of Charles's death, Dr. Chervin set out to discover some of the most basic - but all too often misunderstood - answers to why God allows us to suffer, and how we can bear it with perseverance and hope. She shares her discoveries in these pages, helping you understand that while there is no escape from pain, pain itself is the road into the heart of Christ where peace can be found. You'll be given encouragement and practical advice as you explore afflictions such as failure, fear, frustration, loneliness, loss, marital problems, physical pain, fatigue, and temptation. Dr. Chervin explains each affliction in detail and offers reflections on the lives of saints who suffered from the very same cross. Throughout each chapter you're given practical suggestions on how you can meet Christ in your particular pain. You'll draw wisdom from the lives and writings of saints who were addicted, depressed, exhausted, raped, and unhappily married. And among these saints, you'll discover within their responses a pattern that you can ponder and imitate. Avoiding Bitterness in Suffering will bring courage and hope that in Christ and in communion with his saints, you can - and will - triumph over every kind of adversity. You'll also learn: How you can overcome the pain associated with loneliness and isolationFive ways to overcome doubts about the FaithFour steps to liberation from the suffering of indecisionFive ways to meet Christ in the suffering of exploitationWhat St. Benedict teaches us about failure - and how it changed the worldHow to cope with failure and povertyFive ways you can transform fear into trust in ChristHow you can turn frustrations and anger into a Christian spiritHow you can respond in a holy way to marital discord, demanding spouses, physical abuse, psychological abuse, abandonment, and rageFour ways you can turn to Christ in times of temptation

Book excerpt: For those times when we’re wounded by broken trust, assaulted by disease, or victimized by evil—or when we’re crushed to see such things happen to people we love—Randy Alcorn offers something solid to hold onto: God's love. In this specially focused condensation of Alcorn’s If God Is Good…: Faith in the Midst of Suffering and Evil, we’re continually guided into a deeper glimpse of God’s loving ways and higher purposes—the very things we’re often most blinded to whenever we battle pain and anguish. Alcorn avoids superficial or sentimental responses, and instead presses forward boldly to explore all the troubling doubts and questions that agitate within us when we confront suffering and evil. The issues are far from simple, the answers far from easy—but Alcorn shows how the way of suffering—a path that Jesus himself followed more than anyone else—can ultimately become a journey into wholeness and even logic-defying joy.

Download or read book The Year of the Warrior written by Lars Walker and published by Baen Publishing Enterprises. This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GOD WILLS IT! It all started with a Viking raiWhen he is captured and forced into slavery, Aillil the Irishman must pretend to be a priest or die. Better to be a high-value priest than a low-value corpse, he thinks, and so it happens that a failed novitiate (he loved women too well) is taken up by Norway's first Christian lord, Erling Skjalgsson to bring the Word to his people. Ironically, though "Father"Aillil is as phony as a three-dollar psalm, he and he alone must convert a fiercely pagan people to the gentle teachings of Christ¾and they don't want to hear about it. Nor do their "gods," who are all too real, and all too liable to do something horrible to those disturbing their divine peace. It's going to take a miracle for Aillil to succeed, or even survive, but fortunately God (the one true God, not those pagan demon creatures) is on his side. . . . At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). "... many fierce battles, both with men and with sendings from the other gods ... a Norse saga wrapped in a hair shirt . . . introspective and bloody. . . ." ¾VOYA "The book is not for spiritual sissies . . . rowdy action and a realistic look at the human and spiritual costs of religious and cultural conversion." ¾Florida Today
