Act of God/Active God: Recovering from Natural Disasters

Act of God/Active God: Recovering from Natural Disasters

Is a natural disaster an "act of God?" Did God cause the disaster? If God is all powerful, why did God allow it to happen? Gary Harbaugh argues that God is active in our questions, confusions, and doubts, as well as in those who help—either individually or as communities of faith. He discusses the dynamics of the caregiver/care receiver relationship to provide insights into how natural disaster survivors can face an uncertain future with hope and faith. A final chapter for caregivers provides help for the emotional and spiritual health of those who assist others in times of disaster. Appendices provide practical, close-to-the-ground tools.
