JUL-Nov 2021 Modules
The Book of Job
The Book of Job is said to be the sleeping giant of the Old Testament, one of the best known but least understood. Pastors find it difficult to preach. Teachers find it unmanageable. Theologians find it untenable. Yet it contains a doctrine so vital that God is even prepared to violate his own sense of justice just to prove its importance. Join us to discover the heart of the message of Job.
