Job: A Story of Unlikey Joy (7 Sessions) (Bible Study Book)$28.99
This study was very helpful. Lisa shows the humanity of Jobs friends and his wife's response to his (their) loss and suffering. Yet it's a story of God's love and plan of redemption and the Unlikely Joy to be found in suffering. I've often been drawn to Job, it's been wonderful to glean from Lisa Harper's study, personal stories and those of friends that she does little interviews with on the DVD.
