Listen to Nick read the Firestarter and Job 15:1-6.

 Tuesdays and the Book of Job: open yourself to this intriguing, often tedious study of how it is that the righteous suffer. Job confronts us with the challenge to meet suffering with hope and trust in the Lord, despite our incapacity to understand.

Job has three friends who claim there must be some sin that Job committed to account for his sufferings. They go back and forth in dialogue three different times. This being Year B, we begin with the second series of dialogues. You might want to review the first three chapters of the book that give the entire work its setting.

Job is an especially fitting book with which to journal. When your spirit echoes his, there is a dialogue beginning in your heart—one that the Spirit wants to direct. What is this back and forth movement within you? You and who else are the participants in the dialogue? Write and see.
