Those in ministry must often respond to the following question: œWhy did God allow that horrible event”that tragic accident, that terrible betrayal, that intense suffering”to happen?� After outlining the various responses (theodicies) available to Christians, this course will discuss how best to help those asking œwhy� determine what these responses have to offer. Included among the texts read will be the book of Job.
