In a world riddled with disappointment, malice and tragedy, what rationale do we have for believing in a benevolent God? In this second of two Executive Lunches, John Stackhouse explores how great thinkers have grappled with this question--from Buddha, Confucius, Augustine, Hume and Luther to C. S. Lewis. He suggests that perhaps instead of asking the question, "Why does God allow evil and suffering," we should instead ask "Can God be trusted to be good and do good, even when appearances are strongly to the contrary?"
The Company of Disciples is a growing community of business and working professionals that equips and encourages one another to explore what it means to connect God’s work with ours and to actualize the gospel in every aspect of our lives. Their purpose is to inspire business and working professionals to “see” the intrinsic value of the Gospel and its biblical principles in their careers and empower them to boldly become change agents for the betterment of the world within their profession, industry and spheres of influence.
