Who will Advocate for me? Job and Lament

  • Summary

  • In this episode, Kevin and Paul interview Dr. Lance Hawley, Old Testament professor at Harding School of Theology. Dr. Hawley has researched and written on the book of Job. We delve into the topics of grief and wrestling with loss, and what Job has to say to modern readers about God and suffering. The conversation turns toward lament and how followers of Jesus can be connected with the sufferer. Check out the resources below for more info on the book of Job.

    We want to hear from you!
