Today’s links are about the devastation in Japan. As Christians, let us remember that the gospel of Jesus Christ is still good news (the best news), even in the midst of disaster. Keep Japan in your prayers.
A shocking video of the tsunami:
The Problem of Evil is Everyone’s Problem
The Japan tsunami inevitably raises profound questions about God and evil. But in this discussion, it is important to realize every worldview, not just Christianity, must explain evil.
Update from Japan: How You Can Pray
Pray for the suffering and the mourning. Pray for local church communities to be faithful lights of the gospel. Pray that the hope of God’s grace in Christ will rest upon many hearts in Japan over the coming months.

March 18, 2011 at 10:22 amI have noticed how the Japanese culture so highly reveres nature and specifically the sea, which so abundantly provides for the daily “bread” of the population. May this catastrophe turn hearts away from creation which is cursed and groaning, to the Creator who groaned for their reconciliation.
