Description : Covers all aspects of divine providence.
Written for all who face the hard questions of providence in the concrete arena
of faith. "Every woman who has delivered a stillborn baby knows the devastation
it brings to the heart," write R. C. Sproul. "Who can experience such a thing
without crying to heaven and asking, ‘Why?’ It is normal to wonder where God is
in such circumstances. It is where the rubber of human anguish meets the road of
divine providence."
"This book is an effort to face those issues and
questions that arise with regard to God’s providence," Sproul writes. "It is
designed to look at the question of providence, not only from a doctrinal
viewpoint, but chiefly from an examination of concrete experiences of the
flesh-and-blood people whose lives and struggles are recorded for us in sacred
Scripture."
Sproul concludes: "The Providence of God is our fortress, our
shield, and our very great reward. It is what provides courage and perseverance
for His saints." All who read The Invisible Hand will find themselves praising
God for his mercy and loving kindness.
“Not since I read one of Sproul’s earlier books, The Holiness of
God, has a book simultaneously shaken my soul and comforted it with the presence
of God. . . . This is theology at its finest. It is truth for
living.”
—Rob Taylor (Emmaus Journal)
