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.

Small Churches are Not a Problem, a Virtue or an Excuse
Big churches aren’t better than small churches. But small churches aren’t better than big churches, either.
Bible Reading Coach, Week 48 (2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians) Faith and Grace
Most of the New Testament books were written to groups of people, not individuals. So it’s important to read them that way.
Bible Reading Coach, Week 47 (1 Corinthians) Paul’s Advice to a Sinful Church
A corrupt culture, a divided church, and love as the focus of the spiritual gifts. Paul’s letter to Corinth has never been more relevant – or needed.
