This book offers an approach to the problem of evil that is distinctively Christian, insofar as it is based on the redemptive suffering of Christ, as well as the working of the Spirit within the Christian community. To accomplish this, Kuna first analyzes the Irenaean theodicy of John Hick. Arguing against his post- Enlightenment approach to evil, he shows how Irenaeus, seen in his proper historical context of the refutation of the Gnostic heresy, enables one to concretely approach the problem of evil without having to solve apparently conflicting, abstract statements about God and evil.
