HENDRICKSON

Represents the work of 15 Protestant and Catholic scholars - all members of the same theological faculty, but representing a diversity of backgrounds and approaches. Divided into two parts, this book offers insight into how Christians (and others) have agreed and disagreed in their approaches to the Bible.

Considers questions such as: Is God just? Can we trust Him? and, Why do people suffer? A theology of suffering - from infertility to betrayal and from war to natural disasters, this work considers suffering in relation to the practical wisdom of Scripture and Christian thought. It is for all those who struggle with questions of pain and suffering.
