Insightful book from best-selling author Charles Swindoll offers answers regarding God's purpose for suffering and a biblical plan of human response to adversity.
Nashville, TN (PRWEB) April 24, 2004 --Almost everyone has a personal story of trying times and broken hearts. Most of us have heard of or read about the legendary trials of Job, that Old Testament patriarch and bad news icon. But even though experience allows us to relate to him, do we really understand what Jobs trials were meant to develop in his life? What about the ordeals of hardship in our own lives? How does it all fit together?
The master teacher and storyteller, Charles Swindoll, takes readers on another Great Lives journey with a fresh, new look at the life experiences of Job -- the man whose amazing story of suffering has lived on through countless generations. Job: A Man of Heroic Endurance" (ISBN 0-8499-1389-6, $22.99, 352 pages, March 31, 2004) finds tough questions and unexpected answers in the Biblical portrait of a man who endured unbelievably tough times yet remained blameless before the Lord. Jobs patience and ultimate redemption continues to offer lessons today about the deeper purposes and unfathomable love of God.
In this illuminating study of Jobs life, Swindoll, in his trademark warm and insightful style, helps readers understand the key to developing heroic endurance. His newest work, the seventh in the Great Lives series, offers a practical model of responses for troubled times, profound insight into why people suffer, and an explanation of what God tries to accomplish in us through adversity.
For Christians suffering the loss of a child, serious illness, financial disaster, or the betrayal of friends, God can seem very distant. Swindoll invites the reader to walk alongside Job in order to gain a better understanding of the purposes of pain, patience, and endurance. Readers will find new inspiration about the unwavering depth of Gods love for each person, regardless of difficult circumstances, and gain a source of comfort and encouragement.
