The problem of evil has challenged religious minds and hearts
throughout the ages. Just how can the presence of suffering,
tragedy, and wrongdoing be squared with the all-powerful,
all-loving God of faith? This book gathers some of the best, most
meaningful recent reflections on the problem of evil, with
contributions by shrewd thinkers in the areas of philosophy,
theology, literature, linguistics, and sociology.
In addition to bringing new insights to the old problem of evil,
"Christian Faith and the Problem of Evil is set apart from similar
volumes by the often-novel approaches its authors take to the
subject. Many of the essays pursue classic lines in speculative
philosophy, but others address the problem of evil through biblical
criticism, the thought of Simone Weil, and the faith of battered
women and African American slaves. As a result, this book will
interest a wide range of readers.
