An apology for God, this volume deals with questions such as: * Why doesn't God do things perfectly?* Why is it so hard to believe in God, and does God make it that way?* Why is it so hard to love God, and does God make it that way?R. Maurice Boyd points out that we must look at the nature of our troubles. Troubles are not sent; they come indiscriminately because that is how the world is made. In other words, the world is not made for our individual safety and comfort. Then, says the author, we must look at how we bear our troubles. Things do go wrong, which means we are responsible for the way we bear these troubles. God is not the burden-sender, but the burden-bearer.Key Benefits:* Offers a grasp of a difficult subject* Provides background information from which to formulate responses to questions that arise in times of trouble* Replete with illustrations of persons coping with troubles No library descriptions found. |
