Outstanding Balance of theology and practical experience,
By Jenny McBride (Tucson, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Why God Lets People Suffer (Paperback)
For the person who has ever asked the question of how a loving all powerful God could allow suffering, Nancy's book is a must-read. As a pastor and hospital chaplain I have read many books on suffering and the problem with pain. Nancy's book is the most readable and most thorough coverage of the biblical reasons for suffering and she has made it clear, understandable and "unarguable." No stranger to suffering, Nancy with her many personal experiences illustrates well that we are all aware of the various reasons for suffering but somehow we never put them together and apply them to God and the question of why people suffer. Nancy has achieved making a topic that seems difficult to understand and accept very readable and logical. Since the question "why Does God allow suffering?" is of interest to unbelievers as well as believers, Nancy's approach is easily read and understood by people with little or no biblical knowledge. Her 11 reasons for Why God let's people suffer make a handy discussion group resource that will provide hours of discussion and sharing.
