In this session, Mike compares the five stages of grief originally taught by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross to the grieving process outlined in the Book of Job.

In this lesson, Mike will share seven life lessons that will help students incorporate this book into practical faithful living.

Job must face his greatest crisis which is being in the presence of God as a guilty sinner.

Mike reviews 7 parallels between fishing for fish and "fishing for men."

This lesson reviews the last of the friend's speeches along with Job's summary of his experiences followed by a final speech by Elihu which serves as a bridge to the important questioning of Job by God Himself.

This is my 58th Christmas without my father. I thought of him recently while I browned some meatballs for a spaghetti sauce we were cooking up for guests over the holidays.

Ah, the joy of a new car! It's the pride of ownership that I recently experienced in driving a vehicle that had neither scratch nor blemish. I took great care in staying away from runaway shopping carts slamming into me at the grocery store and not parking too close to other vehicles for fear of their doors opening and damaging the pristine finish on my baby.

In this second cycle of speeches, we see Job's friends holding their line of argument but observe a shift in Job's reasoning concerning the way God metes out justice and the extent of His mercy.

Mike compares today's popular teaching about the Holy Spirit to what the Bible specifically says about the third person in the Godhead.

I was watching the endless rain. Saturday, Sunday and now a third day of gray drizzle continued as I found my way to work on a cold damp Monday morning. Folks came in telling stories of swollen creeks and flooded roads as the earth could no longer soak in the deluge.

A study of the most unlikely passage to wear this title (hint: it is found in Luke).

This lesson reviews the possible types of outlines that could be used to study Job and what each accomplishes along with the first section of the "thematic" outline used in this study.

Mike reviews the life and times of one of the Old Testament's reluctant heroes and demonstrates how his rise to greatness sets a course for our own spiritual development today.

The wait at the tire shop was going to be a long one so I walked over to the taco shop to get a bottle of water. The young girl at the take-out window informed me that they were all out of water then quickly offered to get me a plastic cup filled with ice water and a straw. She offered it with a smile and refused my attempt to pay.

I met an unpleasant man the other day. We didn't speak, only shook hands but his body language and the manner of his grip told me that he wasn't interested in speaking or knowing me. This wouldn't have been so bad except that he was serving as a greeter at a congregation I was visiting.

I once knew a lady who abandoned Christ for golf. She played after work and then began to skip mid-week services to play, and soon was absent on "sunny" Sunday mornings as well.

Mike continues the introductory material by providing brief summary descriptions of the main characters as well as the purpose and style of possible outlines for this book.

The tornado missed my house by several miles. Storm chasers described its wicked course while reporters chronicled the destruction and death in real-time images that mesmerized viewers huddled around their TVs, unable to look away. A familiar spring ritual in Oklahoma.
