    And Then God Spoke (Job 38-42:6)
    Finally, God steps is. Finally, we may be able to make sense of all this. Finally, Job will be vindicated. That is our hope. But God’s ways are not our ways. God reminds Job clearly as to who is really in charge. When all is said and done, Job will know one thing. God is and there is no other. And that is all he really needs to know.

    It’s Not What You Say, It’s How You Say It
    The youngest of Job's friends, who is not mentioned at the beginning or at the
    end of the book speaks for 6 chapters. What we learn is that one can speak truth
    about God but do so in a way that comes across as arrogant. We will look at
    what is right about his speech from which we can learn and we will look at
    where his arrogance gets in the way.

    Closing Argument: Job 29-31
    Job makes his final defense of himself before his friends and before God. We see a man reflecting on his life, on his motives, and on his struggles. It is important to note that God gives Job all the space and time he needs to get it all out of his system. As we examine Job’s final words we will consider the fact that we all can look back at memories, joys, sorrows, regrets, and victories. The question we need to explore is simply this: “When I have hit the proverbial bottom of my life, where is God?”

    The Most Important Treasure
    The person, chosen by God, to pen the words of Job inserts a special chapter. It is a poetic description of the great lengths to which humanity will go to find rare treasure. But it ends by reminding the reader of the simplicity and value of the greatest treasure of all. This pause in all the verbiage that has preceded is like a breath of fresh air that helps each of us refocus on what is really important.

    Amazing Statements from a Hurting Man
    Sprinkled throughout the speeches of Job are statements that should cause each of us to stop and take note. Millenia before Jesus was on the scene Job was confident that there was an advocate, a redeemer, and that they would one day see each other. These amazing statements should give each of us hope in difficult times.

    Clinging to Faith: Faith and Demandingness in Job
    Sometimes our faith is bold and we feel we can handle anything. But all too often we feel like we are just hanging on. It is in the times of darkness that we tend to cry out and demand God to come through. We will discover that God is patient with us and that the issue is never how much faith we have, but that we just have faith. We will trace how Job’s faith begins to struggle and understand yet again how he is much like each of us.

    Wrong Thinking About God
    How we think about God matters. It matters a great deal. In fact how we think about God impacts our daily lives, our daily decisions, and even our relationships, whether we know it or not. Job’s friends, and even Job himself had some notions about God. Their preformed opinions dictated how they “comforted” and confronted Job. But God says they were wrong (Job 42:7). In this sermon we will address the wrong thinking about God in the book of Job and seek to find correction for our own lives.

    Sometimes You Just Can’t – Job 3
    Job’s lament which begins the poetic section of the book resonates with so many of us. At our lowest points some of us wonder why we are here on this earth. We have many questions and few if any answers. And yet one positive note in all this is that Job allows his pain to drive him to God. If that is the only lesson we learn from Job it will be one that will carry us through many difficulties.

    First Responders – Job 2
    After experiencing a physical trial that leaves him longing to depart this life, Job is visited by three friends. Other than his wife who is agonizing over her husbands pain, these three are the only ones to come to his side. We discover much about pain, suffering, and the ministry of presence in this passage. May we each learn the value of silence.

    And So It Begins Job 1
    We begin our new year with a sermon series in the book of Job. This book recounts the trials of a godly man who clung to his faith in the face of tremendous odds, and pain, and loss, and heartache. As we enter a new year with hopes, dreams, plans, and many uncertainties, we need to be reminded that no matter what, even when he seems silent, God is there.
