Justin Thacker's four video presentations respond to one of the most difficult questions we can face: Why does God allow suffering?
Part 1 considers the intellectual problem of suffering and the importance of free will in the debate.
Part 2 considers the personal problem of suffering, when we ask why God allows us, our family or our friends to suffer. Are we more interested in an explanation or a solution?
Part 3 considers the emotional problem of suffering, when we cry out in anguish to God asking "Why?"
Part 4 considers a wider perspective on the presence of suffering in the world.
