"This book began as the 2009 Thomas White Currie lectures at Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary in Austin, Texas"--Acknowledgments.
The shaking of the foundations The impossible chess match Road hazards Fellow pilgrims Walking through the valley of the shadow.
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 the book jacket.
