According to Dr. Jim Denison, Chief Author of The Daily Article, an intensive manhunt is underway at this hour for a gunman who opened fire at a bowling alley and a restaurant in Lewiston, Maine, last night. At least twenty-two people are dead and as many as fifty are injured in this mass shooting.
Meanwhile, Hurricane Otis became the strongest recorded hurricane to hit Mexico’s Pacific Coast when it made landfall yesterday, unleashing a “nightmare scenario” in Acapulco with massive flooding and devastation. Jakob Sauczak was staying at a beachfront hotel when Otis hit. “We laid down on the floor, and some between beds,” he said. “We prayed a lot.”
Prayer is not how some are responding to the tragedies of recent days, however.
“Imagine that there’s no heaven…”
Innocent suffering is just one reason many may be doubting God’s existence and relevance today. Horrific atrocities committed in His name are another.
