Episode 2

The Problem of Good

It’s pretty intuitive that evil shouldn’t exist. Things like the Holocaust or kids with cancer just seem wrong. However, some might argue that the fact that good exists is just as philosophically complex as the existence of evil.

In this episode, Dr. Dru Johnson unpacks the idea of “good” in the Scriptures. Starting right from the beginning of Genesis, he shows us how original readers of the text probably understood both the word and concept of “good.” Pull up a chair and enjoy your insider peek into this fascinating conversation.
