God's Problem: How the Bible Fails to Answer Our Most Important Question - Why We Suffer by Bart D. EhrmanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
It's a thorough refutation of C.S. Lewis's The Problem of Pain.

It's precisely this evangelical literalist prejudice that kept me away from Christianity for so long. Wide reading has brought me back.
