In an article for 'Newsweek,' published on 15 January 2010, Lisa Miller tackles the theme of "The frustrating theology of suffering" under the title:
'Why God Hates Haiti.'
Then she challenges:
"Now with as many as 100,000 dead in last week's earthquake, a sensible person of faith has to grapple with the problem of what scholars call theodicy.
If God is good and intervenes in the world, then why does he make innocents suffer?"
What is the answer to her challenge?
Does the earthquake that claimed so many lives and devastated property in Haiti last week show that God hates Haiti?

Outstanding response This is an excellent sermon on the issues of whether God hates Haiti, and where God is when evil or tragedy strikes. I highly recommend this sermon because it gets to the heart of man's condition and how the gospel has an answer. (I also didn't know pastors in N. Ireland knew who Ravi Zacharias was!)
