Considering Job: Reconciling Sovereignty and Suffering

Suffering is common to the human experience. It is miserable to endure and a problem that has challenged sages, philosophers, theologians--and the person next door--for generations. Graciously, God provides us with an entire book of the Bible on this subject. In Considering Job, Anthony T. Selvaggio demonstrates how God is glorified as both sovereign and good through the reality of human suffering. Selvaggio prepares us to courageously face suffering in our life and more effectively minister to others experiencing miseries in their lives. By embracing the wisdom of this ancient book of Job, we will be drawn closer to our holy, righteous, merciful, and good God.
