MAITLAND, FL— For many years, a common question
has baffled mankind: “Why do bad things happen to good people?” Within the
pages of Dr. Dave Arnold’s new book, Why A Good God Allows Bad Things to Happen ($11.99,
paperback, 978-1-62230-673-2;
$5.99, e-book, 978-1-62230-674-9) readers will find themselves one step closer to an answer. The author
provides clarity on this philosophical mystery, from a Biblical approach.
“Since suffering is common to man, who do we blame? God or man? Perhaps neither,” states the author. “I have had to deal with the pain and have tried to resolve the conflict of why would a good God allow such pain. Not only for others, but at the same time questions in my own heart, such as, doesn’t God care? Is God fair?”
Dr. Dave Arnold, President and Founder of World Evangelistic Outreach, has more than thirty years experience in the field of missions. Dr. Arnold, upon graduation from college, was pastor of a church for fourteen years in Kreamer, PA, a town of 400 people. The church experienced an amazing growth of over 600 people in attendance each Sunday. In 1982, God called Dave into the work of missions with the sole purpose of encouraging God’s work and workers around the world. Under WEO’s leadership there were churches built in Romania, Haiti, and both East and West Africa. In 2009, the author received his Masters Degree in theology.
