    Start with Job and then talk about how Satan wants to use pain from John 11 with the account of the raising of Lazarus (Adapted from a book by Joe Beam called "Seeing the Unseen")

If God is good and all powerful, then how do we explain the existence of pain, suffering, and evil in our world? There are no easy answers. WBTU: Take for ...read more
