AfterLife: There Will Be Trouble
AfterLife: There Will Be Trouble
Over-all
AfterLife is a novel that explores the problem of human pain and suffering juxtaposed to a good God. The exploration of the theodicy problem progresses on Earth and in Paradise concurrently. The main proposition is that our free will is the foundational cause of the problem. Other premises presented include that God does not ordain our suffering and that God loves us. An angel is the main character who travels between Paradise and Earth to witness the various story-lines play out.
Book 1 There Will Be Trouble
The Hill family is dysfunctionally grieving the impending death of the wife and mother, Karen, due to a congenital heart condition. After Karen’s passing, two of the surviving members of her family digress into progressively decompensating behaviors, the other surviving family member tries to stay on a healthy course. Karen enters Paradise and meets previously departed family members and many notable historical figures.
Book 2 Making All Things New
The two highly dysfunctional family members attempt to navigate multiple life-threatening situations, progressively degenerating in their perceptions and behaviors. The one substantially functional family member struggles against external obstacles to remain healthy. Karen receives a quest from God to help her struggling family.
Book 3 The Redemption of God
The crescendo develops and explodes. Is holding on to God’s goodness still warranted in view of the massive catastrophic events? Can those so incredibly traumatized continue to credibly love and trust God? Can the theodicy problem be solved?
