In times of questioning and despair, people often quote the Bible to provide answers. Surprisingly, though, the Bible doesn't have one answer but many "answers" that often contradict one another. Consider these competing explanations for suffering help with by various biblical writers:

  • The prophets: suffering is a punishment for sin
  • The book of Job, which offers two different answers: suffering is a test, and you'll be rewarded later for passing it; and suffering is beyond comprehension, since were just humans and God, in the end, is God
  • Ecclesiastes: suffering is the type of things, so just accept it
  • All apocalyptic texts in both the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament: God will eventually make right all of that is wrong with the world
For renowned Bible scholar Bart Ehrman, the question of why there may be much suffering on the planet is greater than a haunting thought. Ehrman's inability to reconcile the claims of faith with the reality of true to life led the former pastor of the Princeton Baptist Church to reject Christianity. In God's Problem, Ehrman discusses his personal anguish after discovering the Bible's contradictory explanations for suffering and invites everyone of faith—or no faith—to confront their deepest questions about how precisely God engages the globe and each of us.
