About this listen
In such difficult times, suffering and evil beg questions about God--Why would an all-good and all-powerful God create a world full of evil and suffering? And then, how can there be a God if suffering and evil exist?
These are ancient questions, but also modern ones as well. Atheists such as Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and even former believers like Bart Ehrman answer the question simply: The existence of suffering and evil proves there is no God.
In this captivating new book, best-selling author Randy Alcorn challenges the logic of disbelief, and brings a fresh, realistic, and thoroughly biblical insight to the issues these important questions raise.
Alcorn offers insights from his conversations with men and women whose lives have been torn apart by suffering, and yet whose faith in God burns brighter than ever. He reveals the big picture of who God is and what God is doing in the world, now and forever. And he equips you to share your faith more clearly and genuinely in this world of pain and fear.
As he did in his best-selling book, Heaven, Randy Alcorn delves deep into a profound subject, and through compelling stories, provocative questions and answers, and keen biblical understanding, he brings assurance and hope to all.©2009 Randy Alcorn (P)2009 Random House

Story
If God is sovereign, how can I be free to choose? But if God is not sovereign, how can he be God? Is it possible to reconcile God's sovereignty with human choice? This is one of the most perplexing theological questions. It's also one of the most personal. In Hand in Hand, Randy Alcorn says that the traditional approach to this debate has often diminished our trust in God and his purposes. Instead of making a one-sided argument from select verses, Alcorn examines the question in light of all Scripture.

A lifelong pursuit of knowing God should embody the Christian's existence. According to eminent theologian J.I. Packer, however, Christians have become enchanted by modern skepticism and have joined the "gigantic conspiracy of misdirection" by failing to put first things first. Knowing God aims to redirect our attention to the simple, deep truth that to know God is to love His Word.

Story
Walking with God through Pain and Suffering is the definitive Christian book on why bad things happen and how we should respond to them. The question of why there is pain and suffering in the world has confounded every generation; yet there has not been a major book from a Christian perspective exploring why they exist for many years.

Story
Grace or truth…or both? Truth without grace breeds self-righteousness and crushing legalism. Grace without truth breeds deception and moral compromise. Is it possible to embrace both in balance? Jesus did. Randy Alcorn offers a simple yet profound two-point checklist of Christlikeness. “In the end,” says Alcorn, “we don’t need grace or truth. We need grace and truth. And for people to see Jesus in us, they must see both.”

He found himself a traveler in the strangest of lands. Where invisible secrets come starkly into sight. Where the fairest of companions leads the way into unsuspected danger and darkness. Where hidden battles burst into the open. Where so much is grasped…and so much more seems unattainable.

Excellent
This is such a well-reasoned and biblically accurate book about evil and suffering in this world. Exhaustive in the sense that he touched on all conceivable questions, but not exhausting. Well written. Thank you Randy Alcorn!

Essential!
This book is really life-changing. Although the beginning half of the book may seem tedious, stick with it because it will all be tied together in the end. Such great answers to God's plan for us in our suffering, grief and sin. It is an essential book that I have recommended to so many friends already. I plan to listen to this many times in the future,especially when I need to "right" my perspective about the will of God and his eternal sovereignty.

If God is Good, why do we suffer?
I love books by Alcorn. Having recently finished Heaven, I needed more. He is well-researched, provides solid references, and consults many resources to reach a very clear conclusion. He presents many sides to arguments and not just one side. He makes you think. Well worth the long read! This is a question I think about a lot, and his argument makes total sense. My love for God only increased more through reading this. I'll think about this more as my battle with health issues get so much worse, even the harder I fight, and as I prepare for my own potential death and loss of QOL as a 42 yo with such love and passion for this current world, in spite of 26 years of suffering.

Solid Christian response to pain and suffering
This is a wonderful response to atheists who either do not see any meaning in pain and suffering or who use that to refute the existence of God. It also discredits the misleading teachings of many wealth and health preachers. Solid exposition of this difficult subject through study of the scriptures. It is a book that brings the only possible hope and purpose to anyone in pain through Christ alone. Great read!

Amazing Perspective on Suffering
The topic of suffering is often avoided in both the secular and even Christian sphere. This book really addressed some of the reasons why and how suffering is not a curse but really a blessing to be grateful for. Thankyou!

Getting God's Perspective on Suffering
I am grateful for the great effort of research brought by Randy Alcorn to bring God's counsel on a subject we all need help with. This is a textbook I wish I found sooner. I valued his ability to tackle all the views, right and wrong, with Scripture. Thank you.

A much needed book in this spiritual war!
I am so glad I bought the book and the audio version of the book! The book is so well done. I encourage you to buy the book and read it along with the audiobook! There needs to be a child and or teen version of this book! I believe this book could really help the child / teen to get through the sexual “confusions that is happening. The child / teen need to know Suffering and Evil are parts of life!! Learn how to handle parts of life through the blessings / teachings of God! Love this book!
