Job and the Mystery of Suffering: Spiritual Reflections

The ancient story of Job that grapples with the question of why there is suffering in the world even for those who lead a good and upright life has challenged, perplexed and comforted readers for millennia. Here Rohr shares his understanding of the book, both in its historical setting and as a most important message for today.

The book speaks most strongly to those whose own world has fallen apart, but in its essence, it is a call to each reader to let go of old certitudes and goals and to place faith and trust radically in God alone.
