Description
Everyone struggles to
find explanations for their suffering. Dr. Paul Enns answers several
tough, critical questions that all revolve around this central quandry
of "why" - why does God allow suffering? Is suffering the result
of judgment for sin? Are there even explanations for the terrors and
trials we face? Dr. Enns brings answers from Scripture and from his
experience as a professor and pastor, and a wounded one at that. More
than anything, he brings comfort and clarity to people who are
desperate for it.

ENNS (B.R.E., Winnipeg Bible College; Th.M., Th.D., Dallas Theological Seminary) ministers at Idlewild Baptist Church in Tampa, Florida and serves as a professor and the director of the Tampa Extension, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Advance Praise
Suffering? Who has not experienced suffering in some way? The loss of a loved one. The loss of health. The loss of possessions. No one is exempt from some form of malady or pain. No wonder then that we ask if things happen for a reason or if things occur only by happenstance. Enns addresses this issue in a most thorough way. If we suffer, how can God be sovereign? Or if God is loving, why doesn't He do something about our problems? This book will be a source of great comfort for anyone who asks, "Does everything happen for a reason?"
