This week, we hear from Jed Logue in the next week of our Job series. Jed starts by reminiscing about the significance of The Wizard of Oz in his childhood, drawing parallels between Dorothy’s desire to meet the wizard and Job's longing to meet God to resolve his suffering. God finally responds to Job out of a storm, challenging him with a series of questions to reveal the incomprehensible nature of his creation, leading Job to surrender and acknowledge God's sovereignty. The message emphasizes trusting God in the face of suffering and recognizing his greatness.
