Last week it may have felt like we came to the end of the book of Job as we rounded out the last chapter and saw the change in Job. We saw all that God was doing, at least as far as we could understand it. It led to asking how we would begin to live if we truly understood who God is in His person. How would our suffering change when we trusted God more than our circumstances?
In the end we get to see a type of resurrection in Job’s view of not just God, but of life itself. Job starts to honor what his culture would have seen as unworthy and not strategic in regard to family and life. Job starts to live and see the world around him differently once he understood better who God is! The same could be true for us as well, if we become silent before God and start to listen!
oin us for an extended Lent journey as we look at who God is through the life of Job (pronounced Joeb in English and e·yove’ in Hebrew). Job is one of the most misunderstood books in the Old Testament, but seen correctly it can help change the trajectory of our worship and understanding of who God is and who we are.
Lent includes prayer, self-denial, repentance, and generosity; not as an effort to gain God’s blessing or mercy, but as a response to God’s great love already given to us. Our hope is that you would join us for this journey as God’s Spirit leads us to know Him (and ourselves) better.
