Extract

In full recognition of the issues involved in the intellectually and existentially challenging problem of evil, this chapter seeks to mount a response to the reality of evil given faith in the triune God. After critically examining a number of traditional, philosophically-inclined theodicies, the chapter suggests a number of “moments” in a narratival response to evil, focusing on the pivotal theological realities of the cross, resurrection, and new creation.
