During this they help you learn about poetic devices. They specifically address the role that Satan plays in the book, and how that may represent the fallen world, and what that may help you get out of the story. They also look at Job's faith and yet his ignorance in contrast with God, and how that plays into the story and carries along its major message.

Then Kerry and Rosalynde Welch do a deep dive into one chapter of Job that is highly poetic. They explore the beautiful imagery and what it teaches us about our own learning and initiative, and God's, and how we can balance those two notions. They explore the wisdom of God as presented in the chapter. Then Kerry and Robert Millet explore how Job teaches us about faith. They examine the questions Job asks and how he doesn't find answers to them, but demonstrates enough faith that he can grow and develop as God would want, and what that means for us.We are grateful for our executive producers, P.

You can find it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xAyP7_i-4M. In this episode Kerry and Lori Denning explore the story of the Book of Esther. They explore the literary elements that help us understand the book and its themes. They look at how Esther goes from being depicted as passive to active and can be our own story. They look at the role of God in the book, and also how the book shows how you can move forward given whatever your circumstance as you just take advantage of whatever is given you and trust in God. They also look at the difficulty of being religious and faithful in the midst of people who are upset with us for our views. Then Kerry and Justin Top, a military chaplain who teaches other chaplains, explore what happens when we don't see the miracles we are praying for. Or how we may feel when we see others experience miracles but they don't. They discuss how we feel when that happens and provide some ideas for how to think about it and how not to think about it. They also explore the notion that sometimes the struggle we go through when we don't see miracles is a form of grace that we need even more than the miracle. Then Kerry and Julianne explore the same topic, looking at the scriptures are lives of prophets to help us understand this difficult and painful element of all our lives. They also delve into the fact that we all sometimes see some miracles but not others in our lives. They discuss that miracles are related to faith, but when we don't see miracles it is not because we don't have faith.We are grateful for our executive producers, P. Franzen, J. Parke, D. Watson, B.
