Description
When faced with life-changing events, one question often arises: why do good people suffer pain and loss? Bruce Henderson explores this difficult query in his thought-provoking book.
Henderson draws on the wisdom of Emanuel Swedenborg to describe a universe where God allows us free will and choice. He argues that pain and suffering ultimately lead to good, as we draw closer to heaven through our experiences.
By examining the nature of pain and its potential for growth, Henderson offers a hopeful perspective on how we can use our gift of free will to create a better world for ourselves and others. In this book, God is seen as our partner and guiding hand, turning pain into hope and trust.
