There’s not a piece of writing in all of literature better known than Job for its description of the mystery of human suffering and the inadequacy of popular advice on what to do about it. In this deeply moving story, we read about a man whose world collapses, and for no fault of his own; in fact, Job is about as righteous a person as you’ll find anywhere in the Bible! We might expect the book then to address the question, Why do godly people suffer? Actually, it tackles a more pressing issue: Is God still worthy of trust and worship when life comes apart and God is all you’ve got? Read the book of Job, and you’ll find the answer. You’ll also discover the key to true wisdom—God’s kind of wisdom that works when nothing else does.
