Defiant Faith in the Face of Suffering

“We are all like Job,” write Bill Kynes and Will Kynes in their new book, Wrestling with Job: Defiant Faith in the Face of Suffering (IVP Academic). We are “engaged in a mysterious cosmic battle, as every day our faith is put to the test, and God himself is honored when we trust, obey, and worship him as the great and glorious God that he is.”

In this book, Bill and Will Kynes find in Job real faith that holds us together when it feels like our world is falling apart. Defiant faith in the face of suffering takes our anguished questions to God, because he cares for us. Job knows God is good. That’s why can’t make sense of this evil that has befallen him.

In this episode, Collin Hansen talks with Bill and Will Kynes about how and why to preach about the defiant faith of Job.
