Why does a loving God allow His children to suffer? Why does God allow evil to exist? How do the choices made by Adam and Eve affect us today?

In The Fortunate Fall, author Daniel K. Judd offers answers to these timeless questions. His fresh perspective on the lessons we can learn from our first parents - both from their obedience and sacrifice and from their sins and mistakes - gives us a deeper sense of the purpose of our existence and of the benefit and necessity of the fall of Adam and Eve and the atonement of Jesus Christ.

Drawing on his experience as a Church leader and educator, Brother Judd shows us how a true understanding of the Fall can help us heal troubled relationships and respond courageously to evil and opposition. Knowing the right questions to ask and having the right perspective can make an inspired difference in our lives and int he lives of our families.

Brother Judd writes, "If we truly understand the Fall, we can better understand the sorrow and suffering that exist in our lives and in the lives of others. Most important, understanding the fall of Adam and Eve helps us to better understand why we need to implement in our lives the ultimate solution to adversity and affliction - the atonement of Jesus Christ."

By examining the vital connections between the Fall and the Atonement through the perspective of the restored gospel, The Fortunate Fall offers us answers to age-old questions about evil, suffering, and God's will for each of us. With those answers, we gain renewed confidence to conquer our trials and to realize the redeeming power of the Savior's atonement in our lives.
