Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

No woman in history has been so severely condemned for so few words. She only steps on the stage for a moment, and she utters about ten words. On the basis of those few words she has been psychoanalyzed by preachers and scholars, and they have concluded, she was to Job what Judas was to Jesus.

The Father's Job Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

Fathers are God's agents of the law, but they are also God's agents of grace. To be the first, and not the second, is to be one testament shy of a Bible, or shy of God's full revelation. A half of a Bible is not the Bible, and half of a father is not a father.

Hope For The Suffering (Job 14)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Dec 24, 2025

If we suffer is there hope?

Should a brief life invest in eternity? Does such hope help us endure suffering, comfort the suffering? Let’s look at Job 14.

Confronting Friends (Job 32)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jan 1, 2026

Can a young man speak a little bit closer to the truth than Job’s older friends? Let’s look at Job 32. Was Job righteous in his own eyes, and did he justify himself rather than God?
