Why Do Bad Things Happen If God Is Good? (Rhodes, Ron)
reviewed on + 27 more book reviews


When a crosssection of Americans was asked, If you could ask God one question and knew He would give you an answer, what would you ask? the top response was, Why is there so much pain and suffering in the world?

Bible scholar, speaker, and author Ron Rhodes addresses this issue with the heart of a pastor and the mind of an apologist. Debunking nonChristian responses to the problem of pain, Ron explores the unshakable biblical truths that provide a strong foundation in stormy times.

Believers who need a tonic for their faith, caregivers who support people in pain, and seekers who are wrestling with the philosophical problem of evil will find helpful answers in this encouraging and enlightening discussion.
