Does everything happen for a reason? It is important for Christians to understand the problem of evil because so often it is what the world uses to attempt to disprove God and who He is. In a lot of ways these two episodes on the problem of evil provide an apologetics approach to this issue. Let this be a resource for you in discussions you are having with those who do not know Christ or do know Christ but have a severe misunderstanding. Rich takes a good portion of the episode to bring us into some different arguments and how to think through them using scripture. A specific argument covered is The Greater-Good defense. An important thing to understand is the difference between natural suffering and the consequences of sin. As we've said before, there is a lot discussed in this episode that is difficult to sum up here. Make sure you listen and let us know what you think!
