Job and the Mystery of Suffering

Richard Rohr, internationally known retreat leader, speaker and writer, plumbs the depths of the Job's story and its relevance for us today. Rohr strips Christian faith down to the essentials, beyond glib answers and a "hand-me-down" experience of God, and points the way to true knowing. In this invigorating exploration, the tension between suffering and faith becomes a powerful means to an authentic, open connection with the divine.

In this study of Job, Rohr calls to each reader to let go of old certitudes and goals, and place faith and trust radically in God alone. --Spiritual Life
