Description: This book relates the book of Job to the gospel of Jesus Christ. The good news that God comes for his people, not on our terms, but "he comes to transfigure us - to cleanse us, transform us, and draw us up into his glorious presence. He comes in the storm of his presence, and he blows upon us and our families and our sstories; he blows upon them until they glow with the fire of his glory. The act of reading and studying the book of Job is an invitation into that storm. It is a call to enter the whirlwind, to walk into the hurricane of his glory." -- paraphrased and quoted from the preface.
