Synopsis

Looks at what the Bible says about why God lets bad things happen, to help 9-13s grow in confident and considered faith.

Sooner or later, kids have big questions about God, life, faith, and the Bible, especially when their friends start asking them about what they believe. A common one is: Why does God let bad things happen? 

Big questions deserve good answers. This warm, reassuring, and fast-paced book looks at what the Bible says to help 9-13s think through this big question for themselves. It puts the problem of suffering in the context of the Bible’s big story, and encourages readers to see that whatever they’re facing, Jesus is with them. Lively stories and illustrations make this book easy for this age group to engage with.
