‘If God is all loving and all powerful, why is there evil in the world? Can he not do anything about it? Does he choose not to? Is the evil in the world a result of his desire to give us free will? Ok then, what about famine and disease and floods and all the suffering that isn’t caused by humans and our free will? If God is loving, why does he send people to hell?
“Many people have told me to consult the Bible to help answer my questions, but reading the Bible only amplified them.
“Suffice it to say that when I began to believe that the Bible was simply a book written by people as flawed and imperfect as I am – that was when my belief in God truly began to unravel.”
Jonathan Steingard is a pastor’s son and the lead singer and main songwriter with the gospel band called Hawk Nelson.
