Worldview Legacy | The Think Institute #102 Why Evil, If God? And Can We Earn Greater Reward In the Afterlife?
Join a group of Christian men as they discuss the surprising truth about God and evil. Members of the Hammer & Anvil Society—Joel, Kevin, Jeremiah, Chad, Alex, and Patrick—dive into topics like apologetics, the problem of evil, and biblical worldview in this insightful conversation.
This is a Hammer & Anvil Society episode.
Specifically, you will learn about the specific questions:
1. How do we explain the existence of evil in light of God's goodness?
2. How will our actions in this life affect our rewards in the next?
