Salem United Methodist Church issued the following announcement on Oct. 12.
Modern Christian Life, tomorrow (October 13th) from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM (in room B8)
"When the ground shakes, and a poor nation’s economy is destroyed; when the waters rise, washing away a community’s hopes and dreams; when a child suffers neglect and abuse; when violence tears apart nations; where is God? If God is all powerful, and if each one of us is a beloved child of God, then how can God allow tragedy and suffering to infest his creation?
"In Why? Making Sense of God's Will best-selling author Adam Hamilton* brings fresh insight to the age-old question of how to understand the will of God. Rejecting simplistic answers and unexamined assumptions, Hamilton addresses how we can comprehend God’s plan for the world and ourselves."
On Sunday, Jeremy Hickerson will introduce this popular book by Adam Hamilton, and lead a discussion based on the book's first chapter, "Why Do the Innocent Suffer?"
Join us Sunday for thoughtful discussion, fellowship, coffee and treats!
*Adam Hamilton is senior pastor of The United Methodist Church of the Resurrection in Leawood, Kansas, one of the fastest growing, most highly visible churches in the country. The Church Report named Hamilton’s congregation the most influential mainline church in America.
