Where's the Love?

So if God is love, and he created the world based on love, how come everything is so screwed up? Well, that's the million dollar question, isn't it? That's the thing everybody wants to know.

If God is love, how can he let two little boys be ripped out of their mother's arms to drown in a hurricane because the man in a nearby house is too hard-hearted to let them in?

If God is love, how can he let Malala be shot in the head just because she wants an education?

If God is love, how can he stand by and let all the pain and suffering that happens daily on this planet go by without putting a stop to it?

Those are fair questions. I believe that those are questions God wants us to ask. I believe that those are questions God is prepared to answer for us.

And that's what I'm going to be writing about here.

So if you have ever asked those questions, pull up a keyboard. If you know someone who has asked those questions, send them a link, and let's get ready to talk. Bring your hardest questions. Bring your crankiest curmudgeons.

It's gonna get REAL up in here. Because either God's love is big enough and strong enough to handle our real questions, or it truly isn't worth our time, our attention, definitely not our worship.

Minor spoiler: I think it's big enough and strong enough. And I want to explain why.

Will you come along for the ride?
