The Greater Glory Effect

And now comes the end. The Great-Glory Theodicy showcases the greater glory effect. It is seen in the forgiving nature of the Christian as it reflects the forgiving nature of God. Even the worse of humanity, the most painful, the most destructive nature of man is no match for the grace that is unmerited but much needed.

We provide an overview of the book that we just read with you to hit those points of the theodicy that Scott Christensen believes not only best explains evil but is also the most biblical explanation. We wrap up with a personal review and a hope that you came away at least challenged but at best moved to greater knowledge and glorifying nature of who God is and what He has done.

Thank you to Scott Christensen for his book and thank you for joining us in reading What About Evil? A Defense of God’s Sovereign Glory. We hope to see you for our next book that we swore we would read one day – and in it – give God the glory.
