Summary

Many people argue that the presence of evil in the world is proof that God cannot exist, or if he does exist, cannot be good or all-powerful. Greg Welty uses biblical exegesis alongside his experience as a philosopher to present a different conclusion. God, the sovereign Creator and Sustainer of the world, really does work all things for good. A must-listen for anyone struggling with this issue.

  5. Can Free Will or the Laws of Nature Solve the Problem of Evil?
