"When Bad Things Happen to Good People" by Harold Kushner

Book Summary by: AcaDemon    


Discusses issue raised by Kushner as to why an all-powerful God allows suffering. Book's premise is that although the author
believes in God, he has been forced by personal tragedies to rethink everything he learned about God. Discusses story of Job. Kushner contends that even when hard times strike, one should not give up faith in God, and that the victim should not be blamed for his fate.
