Job: A Man of Heroic Endurance
Profiles in Character
By Charles R Swindoll

      Job lost his home, his animals, his family, and nearly his life. He was a blameless, prosperous man whose faith in his God was tested beyond human limits. Swindoll expounds on this courageous man’s struggle with trials that anyone today would never make it through. It covers every trial and tribulation Job survived and the lessons that still resonate from his life lessons even today.

       I strongly recommend this book for anyone who is intrigued by the philosophical aspect to a well-known bible story. Swindoll does a masterful job in applying Job’s life and trials to a modern-day style of understanding. With the depth of a genius before his time, Swindoll takes his readers on a journey beyond the simple biblical text and into the complex world of hardships, loss, and enduring faith.
