Every one of us will experience suffering. Many of us are experiencing it now. As we have seen in recent years, evil is real in our world, present and close to each one of us. ?In such difficult times, suffering and evil beg questions about God--Why would an all-good and all-powerful God create a world full of evil and suffering? And then, how can there be a God if suffering and evil exist? ?These are ancient questions, but also modern ones as well. Atheists such as Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and even former believers like Bart Ehrman answer the question simply: The existence of suffering and evil proves there is no God. ?In this captivating new book, best-selling author Randy Alcorn challenges the logic of disbelief, and brings a fresh, realistic, and thoroughly biblical insight to the issues these important questions raise. ?Alcorn offers insights from his conversations with men and women whose lives have been torn apart by suffering, and yet whose faith in G

What is it About?\\r\\nIt's an age-old question. If there is a God and He is good, then why do we have suffering in the world? Why is there pain and suffering? Why do we hurt? In this short book, Randy Alcorn not only gives a biblical answer to this question, but he gives comfort for us who have and will have suffering in our lives.

Many books either try to sugar-coat suffering or try to deny it all together. Some even try to address it as morality (you are hurting because you have sinned). Alcorn starts his thesis by saying that suffering has its roots in evil and evil is essentially """"a refusal to accept the true God as God.

He also tackles tough questions like why doesn't God immediately bring evil and suffering to an end? Or why God doesn't eliminate the worst forms of evil and suffering?\\r\\n\\r\\nAlcorn also answers a few philosophical questions on suffering like why hasn't God made the reasons for suffering more clear to us? Can we really…
