Radically God-centered viewpoint,

This review is from: Why Does God Allow Suffering? (Paperback)
This book was a breath of fresh air in the midst of all the literature out there which tries to answer the age-old question with either an uncaring or an impotent God. Llyod-Jones dives right at the heart of the question by examining the assumptions that we often hold as we ask the question. He is not overly philosophical nor is his manner unsympathetic, as he writes this in the context of a nation at war. However, his conclusions may cause one to shift uncomfortably...and they very well should! He moves man from center stage and places God on the throne: highly offensive for the natural self-centered man. But as offense gives way to faith, Lloyd-Jones's theology opens the way to a greater joy and assurance in a loving and sovereign God who governs all things and works for the good of those who love Him.Also highly recommended on the same topic is "When God Weeps" by Joni Eareackson Tada and Steve Estes.
