How can one reconcile the existence of a good and omniscient God in light of how much suffering and evil there is in the world?

A thorny issue in the philosophy of religion is the problem of evil. Explaining the problem is simple enough: How can one reconcile the existence of a good and omniscient God in light of how much suffering and evil there is in the world? But providing an argument that resolves this philosophical tension is far more difficult.

Provide the best possible answer that overcomes your friend’s concerns.
