About this episode

Beth Moore begins to unpack the literary masterpiece of the Book of Job, exploring themes of suffering and faith.

In the first session on the book of Job, Beth Moore begins to unpack the literary masterpiece by highlighting a few distinctions about the book. We'll journey into the heavenly courtroom to hear Satan's claim. We'll read together, eyes wide open to the horrific scene that unfolds in Job's life. In a journey of faith, we are challenged to navigate relationship with this God we cannot see nor fully comprehend and certainly cannot control. Can we trust someone we have no capacity to control? We have crises of faith so disturbing to us that we feel like we can't tell it to others yet, we need desperately to know we are not alone. So aware is our God of this condition, he made certain we would not only find company but find it in the actual biblical canon itself. There is despair. And then there is baffled despair. Suffering that exceeds our ability to process. Welcome to the Book of Job. Scriptures referenced include: Job Chapters 1-3 --------------- Beth taught this message at her local Thursday night Bible Study in Jan/Feb 2026. We hope you find this five-session series to be helpful in your faith journey. To obtain a copy of the free Listening Guide, please visit…
