Dr Bethany Sollereder, Faculty of Theology and Religion, Oxford

With an introduction by Professor Alister McGrath

St Mary Magdalen's Church, Oxford

Dr Bethany Sollereder, Research Fellow of the Ian Ramsey Centre, is launching a new book. Why is there Suffering? Pick Your Own Theological Expedition explores the tangled theology of suffering through a light-hearted, self-guided exploration through multiple choices. The reader is asked to make a theological decision every few pages and is directed to the next appropriate step of their theological journey. From mystery-laden mountain passes, through the paths of providence, or the high moors of atheism, the reader can wander at will through the landscapes of theodicy and redemption.

Event Details: 5pm at St Mary Magdalen's Church, Oxford (next to the Martyr's memorial at the bottom of St Giles) Wednesday 3 November. The presentation portion of the evening will begin at 5:30pm, with Professor Alister McGrath speaking.
