We’re invited to witness the transformative journey of faith that Job undergoes while being confronted with four qualities of God that shine through even the darkest moments of suffering: His ability, His personal nature, His grace, and His faithfulness. We are reminded that even in our deepest trials, God is working to conform us to the image of His Son, inviting us to find contentment in Him alone, regardless of our circumstances.

When Friends Fail Part 2 / Sermon Only
October 13, 2024 • Justin O'Dell • Job 11—37
In times of suffering, we don't need defenders of God or empty platitudes. We need friends who will sit with us in the pain and gently remind us of God's presence and love. True wisdom isn't about explaining away suffering or trying to control God through our obedience. It's about seeking the Giver, not the gifts. It's trusting that even if everything was taken away, we could still say with Job, 'The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.'
