Description

Why is there evil and suffering in God?s good creation? Does the presence of such things undermine the rationality of belief in God? How should those called to serve the church in leadership capacities think and talk about such matters with laypersons? What responses to evil and suffering are given in the Bible? How have Christian theologians and secular philosophers historically addressed and framed such issues? This course is designed to give students tools to think through these questions both theologically and pastorally. Pre-requisite: TSE 110.
