Product Description:
When natural disaster strikes, survivors and onlookers alike face questions about whether God is in control or how he could allow such tragedy to occur. Respected Bible teacher Erwin Lutzer offers answers about God's purposes, his goodness, and his ultimate plan. Without pretending to know the mind of God, Lutzer's answers assure the reader that God is still sovereign, and his plan is still best.

From the Inside Flap
Natural disasters are God’s megaphone, shouting to the world.
Natural disasters deliver an important message that’s impossible to ignore. In the wake of such horrific events, we quickly realize our need for someone more powerful than ourselves.
When faced with life’s toughest questions, how will you respond to the Creator of the universe? Will you turn to Him for hope and comfort? Or will you turn away, reasoning that no good God could ever allow such devastation to occur? In this in-depth study, you’ll learn what the Bible has to say about God’s role in human suffering and His creation. Each chapter will equip you to better understand the relationship between God and natural disaster, as well as answer the tough questions we all have following such an event.
Respected pastor and teacher Erwin W. Lutzer helps us to see that the God of the Bible can be trusted, and that His promises are worthy of our faith and the basis of our hope, even when answers are hard to come by.

Mon avis :

J’ai eu la joie de rencontrer Erwin Lutzer en Hongrie en mai dernier lors de 5 jours de conférences. D’une façon générale j’ai bien apprécié ses interventions. Ici Lutzer s’attaque à une des questions les plus dure existentiellement et intellectuelle et émotionnelle de tout les temps (enfin depuis la chute). Personnellement j’ai beaucoup apprécié la lecture de ce livre que je trouve bien écrit, bien argumenté et bien pratique. Il remet en question beaucoup d’idée reçues, met en garde contre certaines interprétations maladroites et remet les pendules à l’heure. Un petit livre qui mériterai une traduction en français…
