In this episode of The Word Made Human, we take a deep dive into the Book of Job—not as divine scripture, but as one of the most powerful works of human literature ever written. Through a secular humanist lens, we explore Job’s radical protest against unjust suffering, the failure of theological explanations, and the quiet resilience of moral courage. With poetic quotes from the text and thoughtful reflection, we rediscover Job not as a parable of blind faith, but as a cry for meaning in a world that doesn’t always make sense. This is not a story of reward—it’s a story of surviving what you don’t deserve.
