Book 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.

 | 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. | | |  | Great book Jul 4, 2006 |
We learned that trials that come our way does not mean that we are out of the will of God.
That as humans we can never know why God does whae He does.
That He allows testing for reasons we may never know until we are in heaven | | | | The Dignity of Suffering Nov 7, 2005 |
| Swindoll has delivered a message of dignity not pity. He has given the reader a taste of the bitter reality which Job faced. Swindoll not only connects the reader to Job but also to modern/contemporary times and application. Swindoll comforts the reader by letting him know it's perfectly acceptable and normal to feel hurt, betrayed, frustrated, and victimized during hard-times; he offers the reader hope to hang on. This book should be required for all people who have never suffered or expierenced loss prior to offering their well-intentioned reasons, formulas, advice and "comfort". Swindoll has not only brought out the integrity and endurance of Job but also the dignity of Job in suffering. A must read for those going into (or active therein) ministry. | | | | Another Homerun! Sep 25, 2005 |
| Swindoll has such a gift for bringing people to life. Whether or not we beat up ourselves during severe trials, or it is left to "well-meaning" friends to take on that responsibility, this book gives encouragement and direction to our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions. If you're going through a trial - or should I say WHEN you go through a trial that hurts - and hurts bad, give this book a read. | | | | Long Nov 14, 2004 |
| I have read several books by this author and he always offers phenomenal insight. God has blessed this man tremendously to spread his word. I have read almost all of the Great Lives series and Job was one of the longest ones. I had no idea it would take me forever to get through this book. As always Mr. Swindoll offers great insight but he kept repeating the same thing over and over and over. I got the point the first time! This book is a good read because of the insight provided, if you are a person who enjoys repetition this book is for you. | | | Write your own review about Job: Man Of Heroic Endurance (Great Lives)
