Beskrivning

Walter Cardinal Kasper has written, “It is time, it is the right time, to speak of God.” This book invites readers to use their God-given ability to work through important questions that many people have about God today: Why is God so angry in the Bible? Is the biblical God male or female (or what)? Who is Satan? Why do people suffer? By exploring the Bible’s answers to these and other biblical questions, people can come to understand better their living and loving God.

“Mark Smith’s new book should be required reading for every student of Scripture, no matter how proficient. This is a theo-logy (study of God) for ordinary searching people as well as for scholars. Smith deals clearly and sensitively with difficult and ambiguous issues such as God’s anger, God’s gender, and human suffering. His questions lead us to reflect on our own situation, and his conclusion is truly profound.” Irene Nowell, OSB Author of Pleading, Cursing, Praising: Conversations with God through the Psalms
