Job on Suffering

You are currently viewing Job on Suffering

I’m still processing the events in Newtown, CT and the discussions that are happening as a result. Perhaps I’ll have something to say about both gun control and mental illness in days to come. As things stand, I reckon my Christmas Sermon is going to be going in a different direction to the original plan (i.e. the Slaughter of the Innocents seems to be entirely topical).

Still, it would be good to speak into the awfulness of the shooting of kindergarten children so, with that in mind, here’s 2 sermons from a while back in the Old Testament book of Job.

Job 1-2

Job 38-42
