If God Is Good Why Is The World So Bad Author:Benjamin Blech In these troubled times, people are asking very difficult questions about God and their faith:
If I suffer, does that mean I deserve it?
Why do innocent people, especially children, die tragically?
Why does God allow sickness, torture and evil to exist?
Benjamin Blech admits, the answers are not simple. There is no one-size-fits-all explanation. Indeed, not only are there many answers, but in different situations several explanations may apply. Blech wrote this book as an intellectual analysis of Jewish wisdom on the subject of suffering. His theories are the fruit of thousands of years of debate, examination and struggle. Jewish wisdom teaches that there are rich and inspiring answers to the ultimate question: If God is good, why is the world so bad? Take part in the most important spiritual journey of all-the quest for serenity in the face of adversity-and discover that in the accumulated wisdom of the ages lies a time-tested solution for turning despair into hope and sorrow into faith.« less
