• Job Ep. 35: Job Fires Back
    Feb 20 2026
    In Job 12:1-12, Job finally responds to his three friends with biting sarcasm and hard truth. "Wisdom will die with you!" he says. He exposes how they've mocked him despite his righteousness, how the comfortable have contempt for those who suffer, and how the wicked often prosper while the righteous struggle. Job reminds them that even the animals know God is sovereign—the real question isn't God's power but why He allows what He allows. This episode challenges us to test the words we hear and avoid simplistic theological formulas. Thanks for listening!

  • Job Ep. 34: The If/Then Formula
    Feb 19 2026
    In Job 11:13-20, Zophar offers Job a simple formula: If you repent, then God will restore you. The promises are beautiful—life brighter than noonday, darkness becoming like morning, security and peace. But Zophar's diagnosis is wrong. Job isn't suffering because of hidden sin, so the formula doesn't apply. This episode explores the danger of forcing complex situations into simple theological formulas and reminds us that suffering people need presence more than answers, compassion more than easy solutions.

  • Job Ep. 33: Enter Zophar
    Feb 18 2026
    Zophar, Job's third friend, proves to be the harshest yet—dismissing Job's words and declaring he deserves worse punishment than he's received. Though Zophar speaks beautiful truths about God's incomprehensible wisdom, he applies them wrongly, showing that correct theology can still wound when misapplied. Thanks for listening!

  • Job Ep. 32: The Hidden Plan
    Feb 17 2026
    Job accuses God of planning his destruction from the beginning and wishes he'd never been born. His description of Sheol as a land of utter darkness reminds us how different our hope is—Jesus has transformed death from a place of no return into a passage to resurrection. Thanks for listening!

  • Job Ep. 31: You Made Me
    Feb 16 2026
    Job loathes his life and questions God's justice, yet he remembers God as his Creator. Through striking poetry about being knit together in the womb, Job appeals to the hands that made him—even as those same hands seem to be destroying him. Thanks for listening!

  • Job Ep. 30: When Innocence Doesn’t Matter
    Feb 13 2026
    In Job 9:21-35, we encounter one of the darkest moments in Job's journey. Though he knows he's blameless, Job feels helpless before God's overwhelming power. In his despair, he makes shocking accusations and cries out for something he doesn't yet have—a mediator who can bridge the gap between God and humanity. This raw, honest passage shows us both the depth of human suffering and points us toward the answer Job was longing for: Jesus Christ, our mediator. Thanks for listening!

  • Job Ep. 29: No Day in Court
    Feb 12 2026
    In Job 9:14-20, Job wrestles with an impossible dilemma: how can a finite human being get a fair hearing before an infinite God? Even though Job maintains his innocence, he realizes that God is both judge and jury, setting the rules and holding all the power. Job's cry reveals his deepest frustration—not that God is unjust, but that there seems to be no way to access Him, no mediator to bridge the vast gap between creator and creature. This dark passage invites us to sit with Job in his honest struggle rather than rushing to easy answers. Thanks for listening!

  • Job Ep. 28: How Can Anyone Be Right Before God?
    Feb 11 2026
    Job responds to Bildad by agreeing that God is just—but then asks the harder question: How can any human being possibly prove their innocence before an infinitely wise and powerful God? In this raw and honest passage, Job wrestles with the overwhelming nature of God's power and the impossibility of disputing with Him. This isn't comfortable theology, but it's honest theology—and it challenges us to resist reducing God to a formula we can control. Thanks for listening!
