Job

The Righteous Sufferer

Job: The Righteous Sufferer invites readers into one of the Bible’s most profound and unsettling books.

From the strange scene in the heavenly courtroom, through Job’s bitter laments, the friends’ flawed theology, and God’s awe-inspiring speech from the whirlwind, this study walks chapter by chapter, exploring the questions and mystery of undeserved suffering.

Along the way, this book includes reflections from church history, psychology (including Carl Jung), and contemporary voices like Jordan Peterson. The author weaves in deeply personal stories of accompanying his late wife through chronic illness and his ministry as a hospice chaplain — helping readers apply Job’s story to their own lives.

This study is for anyone who has asked “Why?” and found no easy answer — but who seeks to live faithfully, honestly, and humbly in the face of life’s hardest realities.
