The book of Job is a challenge because the bulk of it (chapters 3-37) contains arguments that God eventually tells us are wrong (chapters 38-42).
So why read it? Because we still use the same arguments today – that only bad people suffer – which simply isn’t true.
In this episode you’ll get some guidance to help bring this difficult, but powerful book alive and give us the lessons that only suffering can teach us.
The Bible Reading Coach podcast is designed to help anyone read through the Bible in a year. In 10-15 minutes each Friday, I’ll introduce you to the passage for the following week, including:
- What it’s about
- How to deal with challenging passages
- How the original readers saw it
- How it applies today
- And much more
After listening, take the next week to read the passage on your own. This time you’ll have a clearer understanding of it.
