The Hebrew Bible contains different kinds of wisdom literature.  For example, wise sayings in Proverbs typically express general principles, providing guidance for what to do when the world is working the way it’s supposed to.  However, Job deals with just the opposite issue.  What happens when you do everything right and still face extraordinary loss and suffering?  In this teaching we’ll work through the major themes in Job to uncover the overall message of the book.  We’ll see how Job refutes the simplistic idea of karma, so commonly assumed by so many today.  In the end we’ll see that our world is complicated, but God is here through it all.
