Lamentations - Job: God's Path Through Pain

Pressure and pain are realities of life. One of the verifying realities of the Old Testament record is its openness about the difficulties God’s people often suffered—and were often confused by. This course studies three books that deal head-on with the pain and pressure often associated with being God’s people.
