Providence, Suffering, Pain, Omnipotence, Goodness 

In 20 chapters, Sproul addresses the questions of a good God guiding and caring for all things even when life seems dark, desperate, cold, and totally against us. It is "where the rubber of human anguish meets the road of divine providence."

"Every woman who has delivered a stillborn baby knows the devastation it brings to the heart," ... "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 ... 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.
