JOB Part 4, In Conclusion
Concluding our series on Job, Pastor Andy reminds us that life will no doubt bring you pain. Maybe to varying degrees, but all of us will suffer, we will experience disappointment, heartache, heartbreak, and everything in between. When life brings you pain, pour out your lamentation unto God, He can handle it. But then also, learn to see the sheer gift of existence, for God is making all things new. And ultimately the book of Job, this universal book about suffering is a book that invites us to trust in the redemptive purposes of God, for He is fully capable, and His plans will not be thwarted.

But for any who think of themselves as on the outside, Epiphany shines the light of good news. That any who is seeking is welcome to come and find Christ.
