Opening Up Job
Why do bad things happen to good people? Why me? Can suffering serve any good purpose?
These are real questions that many wrestle with today—and that Job wrestled with thousands of years ago.
The Book of Job is a historical biography of Job, ‘a blameless and upright man’, one justified by faith in the sight of God.
As it traces his spiritual journey through tragic bereavement and illness, it helps us find solutions to these and other ‘hot potato’ questions and shows us that sickness and suffering are not always inevitably linked to personal sin.
