If God, Why Evil? – Dr. Phil Fernandes

Description: Throughout history the problem of evil has been the number one objection against belief in God. How could a good God allow evil and innocent human suffering? If God created everything else that exists, did God create evil? Dr. Fernandes discusses how Christian theologians have responded to these objections throughout church history. He also shows that evil is actually evidence for God, not against God.

Speaker: Dr. Phil Fernandes is the senior pastor of Trinity Bible Fellowship and the president of the Institute of Biblical Defense. Fernandes founded the Institute of Biblical Defense in 1990 to help train Christians in their defense of the faith. He also teaches Bible, philosophy, and world religions at Crosspoint Academy and the Gateway School of Ministry in Bremerton, WA.

He has authored several books dealing with the defense of the Christian faith. Many lectures/debates/sermons are available on his website.
