Job: The Suffering of the Innocent || Wonder and Comfort: When God Sticks Around
Sunday, October 24, 2021
Rev. Dr. Donna Claycomb Sokol
Our series on the book of Job concludes on Sunday with Job responding to God speaking from a whirlwind, followed by the epilogue in which YHWH restores all Job lost, giving him twice as much as he had before. Hidden within the epilogue is a tiny shift that reveals how, through suffering, Job has learned how all things truly are precious. What if this season of intense loss has taught us a similar lesson—that much of what surrounds us is far more precious than we once understood or realized?
