A compelling argument for why believers should welcome Christianity's tough paradoxes and difficult questions, allowing them to better understand their faith The Christian faith is full of apparent paradoxes: a compassionate God who sanctions genocide, an all-powerful God who allows horrific suffering, a God who owns everything yet demands so much from his followers, a God who is distant and yet present at the same time. Many of us have big questions that the Christian faith seems to leave unanswered. So we push them to the back of our minds, for fear of destabilizing our beliefs. But leaving these questions unexamined is neither healthy for us, nor honoring to God. Rather than shying away from the difficult questions, we need to face them head on.
