    Present Evil, Active God: Can This World's Evil Ever Be Resolved?
    • 2022

      Can we truly believe God is active and good amidst rampant evil? This question challenges our understanding of divine love and involvement. Throughout history, both believers and nonbelievers have grappled with this issue. Notable figures like Lenin, Mao, Hitler, Tolstoy, Gandhi, and MLK Jr. illustrate that even the worst evil has not hindered the greatest solutions from making an impact. Jered Gritters applies the Sermon on the Mount and a “relational approach” to show how anyone can contribute to addressing the problem of evil. With empirical evidence and a solid biblical foundation, he argues that the existence of evil is not the unsolvable conundrum many perceive it to be. Gritters meticulously compiles historical theology and philosophy to demonstrate how God is actively pursuing a solution to evil and inviting our participation. By exploring why God allowed evil, he provides context and synthesis regarding God’s ongoing engagement in addressing our struggle with evil. Ultimately, those willing to see will gain clarity on the masterful plan designed to resolve our existential crisis once and for all.
