Why should anyone believe in God in a world with so much pain?

Why should I become a Christian when I find the public agenda of many Christians so offensive?

I have been hurt by the church in the past. Why should I bother with it now?

Most Christians have found themselves in conversations with nonbelieving friends and family where these kinds of questions have come up. In fact, most Christians have probably found themselves asking these questions too. But everyone who has ever wondered about such complicated things knows that this is dangerous territory--after all, what if there's no easy answer?

This book welcomes and encourages these questions that Christians "aren't supposed to ask." In each chapter, James Brownson introduces a particular question and then reframes it with a relevant passage from the Bible, bringing to bear his expertise as a biblical scholar. Rather than providing dogmatic (and ultimately unsatisfying) "Sunday school answers," he explores the questions in provocative ways that often challenge the status quo of American Christianity. Fittingly, each chapter closes with discussion questions and suggestions for further reading, so that the conversations begun here can continue among the book's readers in fruitful ways.
