Transformational Grief In The Book Of Job

Expected and unexpected losses are inevitable. Transformational Grief in the Book of Job examines how Job and his friends dealt with grief in the Bible and how the Lord helped lead them to restoration. This study, in turn, can help others learn from Job as well as other biblical figures who suffered. I hope readers will grow in knowledge and understanding of grief and realize how they can be transformed through the help of the Lord and others.
