Michael Baughen approaches the problem of suffering in a warmly pastoral way, rather than attempting to provide an apologetic.
He begins with the gospel, the cross reminds us that God is with us in our suffering. He also points to the future, to the ‘day of God’ when we will have resurrection bodies. He says: ‘In the memorable words from Narnia, the term will be over and the holidays will have begun’ (p.57).
