Job (Insights: Bible Studies for Growing Faith)

Job is a brief yet complete guide to the Hebrew Scriptures Book of Job. In an accessible way Whitfield invites readers to ponder such questions as: What is God really like? why should we worship God? why do the righteous suffer? will our relationship with God improve if we are critical of traditional religious beliefs? and is the quid pro quo idea of the God-human relationship still alive and healthy? Insights: Bible Studies for Growing Faith is a fresh and timely Bible study series. In these short-term thematically based resources individuals and groups are invited to find meaning and direction for their lives by exploring the Scriptures in a way that is both thoughtful and thought-provoking. Raymond Whitfield is former vice president dean and professor at Eastern Washington University in Cheney Washington.
