If God Is Good
Faith in the Midst of Suffering and Evil
By Randy Alcorn
This book is Randy Alcorn’s argument that evil and suffering serve a purpose in this world, one that we will one day understand. I confess that I began reading with the idea that I probably wouldn’t like it, as I disagree with many of Alcorn’s stances on Christianity. However, I found the book to be well-written and, at least for me, true. As a believer in God, I accept that He is all-powerful, but for reasons I may not understand, chooses not to eliminate evil and suffering from this world. For those wrestling with the why and how of this, the book provides excellent and thought-provoking arguments for the reasons. I would recommend this for anyone struggling with these questions, whether or not you agree with Alcorn’s personal politics.
