The God Who Responds

Touching areas of both apologetics and systematic theology, this is a discussion of the ways in which God related to His world: through prayer, miracles, providence and sovereignty. In the light of both contemporary problems facing the church and lessons from the past, Dr MacDonald addresses questions such as: Can God truly answer prayer if the 'answer' is already in existence? Do miracles really happen? Why is there evil if the Creator of the universe is good? Do some things really happen only 'by chance'? The author exhorts the church to return to a biblical understanding of God as a truly personal being and to resist the Eastern view of an impersonal, uncaring deity which is sweeping the West today.
