Sarah’s Laughter provides a reflection on suffering that is deeply personal and both theologically and philosophically astute.
Vinoth Ramachandra draws on his distinctive positioning as a Sri Lankan Christian theologian — one who has lived and ministered in contexts shaped by the destruction of natural disasters and the violence of human evil — to confront the intellectual, moral, and political challenges posed to faith in the increasingly broken world of the twenty-first century. Yet far from being an abstract discussion of theodicy, this book is intimate and vulnerable, embracing the biblical practice of lament and inviting an authentic response to grief — one that makes space for serious doubt and profound questioning. Sharing his own ongoing journey with suffering and a questing faith, Ramachandra reminds us that lament and joy, faith and protest, clarity and ambiguity, belong together in faithful Christian discipleship. It is not in bypassing the darkness of the world, but in embracing it — in imitation of the incarnate God — that we may glimpse the new creation.
