Product Description
The trials of Job are legendary. One righteous man suffering so many calamities, so much heartache. But despite the fact that many have heard about Job and his trials, not many people truly understand what those trials were all about and what God was trying to accomplish through them. Job himself was confused about it all. What did I do to deserve such suffering? he cried out. Eventually, though, through tough questions and unexpected answers from God, Job gained new insights on suffering, patience, and endurance. And, more importantly, he learned how deeply he was loved by God. Sooner or later, we all go through our times of suffering and heartache, and the ancient story of Job offers timeless truth for us if we'll only listen. Now, in this illuminating study of Job's life, Charles Swindoll, in his trademark warm and insightful style, helps readers understand the key to developing heroic endurance.

 | Disappointed May 18, 2010 |
| I too am disappointed with Mr. Swindoll's comment about giving his son a raise in allowance after bashing in the teeth of a school mate. I don't know much about him and this is the first book of his that I have read. I keep asking myself whether his man can help me understand the word of God. "By their fruit you will recognize them." Maybe I should look somewhere else. | | | | Disappointed Dec 9, 2009 |
| This is the sixth book I have completed in the nine book Great Lives series. I love this Old Testament book for a number of reasons. Job was a blameless and upright man who endured a life far more difficult than you and I will probably ever experience. Job lost his health, wealth, and children, and on top of that, he had lousy friends who provided a great deal of harsh criticism. In spite of all of this, Job did not curse God. The Book of Job might be considered a difficult or boring read for many, but Job ends on a happy note, and I am a total sucker for happy endings. In regards to this analysis of Job, I was disappointed with a couple portions of the book which I found to be out of line. I was quite surprised to read some inappropriate comments made about the late Steve Irwin ('Crocodile Hunter') and his wife as well as Chuck's delight when one of his sons got angry at a harassing classmate and rearranged his face. I have learned a great deal from Chuck Swindoll (a man that Christianity Today calls one of the most-influential preachers in the past 50 years), and I will continue to read his work, but this is a book I cannot whole heartily recommend. | | |  | Job: A man of heroic endurance Jul 14, 2009 |
| This is one book I would recommend to anyone who is going through some tough times and wondering where is God. This book gave me great hope to know that God is still in control of our lives. | | |  | Great Insights Into The Attitude We Should Have When Going Through Trials,But Still Doesn't Answer The Question ,WHY? Mar 7, 2009 |
I was really hoping this book would give a reason why God put Job through all that,since that has always bothered me,but it doesn't, except to say God can do whatever He wants!
We all know that He can,but that certainly isn't an explanation for why it was done. The only thing I can think,is that it is a learning lesson for us to see how to handle such adversity and what our attitude should be. This book does give a lot of excellent insights for that,and I am glad that I read it.
I would recommend it for those reasons. | | | | Enjoyed This Book Jul 30, 2006 |
| I really enjoyed this book. I wasn't sure of the topic. You always hear how Job suffered. Swindoll takes the approach that Job endures. I loved the chapter on how to handle criticism with class. Just a different take on a great man of the Bible. It's long enough to cover the whole book of the Bible but short enough to keep your interest. I highly recommend this book and all the others in the Great Lives series. | | | Write your own review about Job: Man Of Heroic Endurance (Great Lives)
