God and the Problem of Evil

The sovereignty of God is a tough issue for a lot of people, even those who profess to be Christians. I am amazed at the consistency of atheists who nearly every time sight the problem of evil in the world as their number one reason for not being able to believe in God.

It is a perplexing and complicated discussion -- a powerful, loving God and a planet full of unfathomable crime and evil.

This radio interview does an amazing job of answering the very tough questions about why God allows terrible things to happen while still maintaining his love, mercy, and sovereignty through it.

The interview is specifically addressing the December 26 Indian Ocean tsunami, but can easily be personally applied to our own suffering and circumstances as well.
