Description:      We'll be discussing Greg Boyd's book: "Is God to Blame? Moving Beyond Pat Answers to the Problem of Suffering".
The question, is God to blame, often comes to mind when we confront real suffering in our own lives or in the lives of those we love. Pastor Gregory A. Boyd helps us deal with this question honestly and biblically, while avoiding glib answers. Boyd paints a hopeful picture of a sovereign God who is relentlessly opposed to evil, who knows our sufferings and who can be trusted to bring us through them to renewed life.
