Where is God in the Face of Evil?
“Theodicy” is a theological concept that attempts to justify God in the face of evil. It is also defined as the defense of God's goodness and omnipotence in the face of evil. This is all good in theory, but when people we love are suffering through no fault of their own, how do we reconcile this pain with the existence of a loving Creator? Join us for the conversation at the 2024 Spring Convocation.
