Throughout the two-thousand-year span of Christian history, believers in Jesus have sought to articulate their faith and their understanding of how God works in the world. How do we, as we examine the vast and varied output of those who came before us, understand the unity and the diversity of their thinking? How do we make sense of our own thought in light of theirs? The Christian Understandings series offers to help. In this exciting volume, Charlene Burns offers a brief but thorough tour through more than two millennia of thought on the nature of evil. Starting with the contexts of the Hebrew Bible and moving forward, Burns outlines the many ways that Christian thought has attempted to deal with the reality of evil and suffering. From a personal Satan and demonic activity, to questions of free will and autonomy, to the nature of God and God’s role in suffering, Burns offers a clear and compelling overview.

Understanding the integral role of Christianity in eighteenth-century Scottish life is key to understanding the enigma that is Robert Burns. Equally, the poetry of Burns provides penetrating insights into religious life in Scotland and religion in general. This is the starting premise of this enlightening book. Told chronologically, it recounts the story of Burns' life from his family's background in the Mearns to his early death in Dumfries and his influence beyond. Integral to Burns' life was his relationship with God and religion and the fascinating dilemma - how did this intensely moral man reconcile his faith with his notoriously libertarian lifestyle?
