The Poor Will Be Glad The Spiritual Danger of Doing Good and Mission Drift

A MIDLIFE CRISIS OPPORTUNITY

At midlife our perspective can become blurry

Midlife is a disruptive season where we collide

with limitations on all sides There is more of

life in the rearview mirror than on the road

ahead of us and we wonder if our lives so farhave been worthwhile We are uncertain about

what lies ahead But midlife is also an oppor-

tunity to recalibrate our vision

Peter Greer and Greg Lafferty offer insight

for navigating midlife with fresh clarity and

purpose Drawing on the wisdom of the book

of Ecclesiastes they show how even in a world

that can seem meaningless at times God offers

perspective that anchors us renews us and

propels us back into the world in meaningful

mission and service

Rediscover who God has called you to be And

see the rest of your life with 4040 vision

The Lost World of Scripture The NIV Application

Commentary Job and The IVP Bible Background

Commentary Old Testament

A RICHER READING OF JOB

We often turn to the book of Job when

we encounter suffering We look for an

explanation for the questions ldquoWhy merdquo

or ldquoWhy herrdquo But what if it turns out

that although Job does suffer the book is

not really about his suffering

If ever a book needed a ldquoHow to Readrdquo

instruction manual it is the book of Job

And when two respected Old Testament

scholars team upmdashboth of whom have

written commentaries on Jobmdashwe have a

matchless guide to reading and appreciat-

ing the book Walton and Longman give

us the best of their expertise covering

the literary historical and theological

aspects of Job for students teachers and

busy pastors

Tremper Longman III

ldquoWalton and Longman two seasoned commenta-

tors on Job argue that readers should redirect

their efforts from seeking in its pages reasons for

human suffering to instead recognizing the lesson

to trust in a sovereign God within the incon-

gruities of life The pious may not understand

their painful lot but assurance and rest come in

accepting the wisdom of the Almighty Thoughtful

and accessible this is a welcome addition to the

How To Read seriesrdquo

HOW TO READ SERIES

We should read a poem very differently than we read a history book

and we read both of them differently than wersquod read a novel The same is true

when it comes to our approach to Scripture Thatrsquos why this series from Tremper

Longman does just what its name describes helps you understand the

proper way to read various books of the Bible

How to Read Series includes Job and these four titles

ldquoWalton and Longman take unequivocal inter-

pretive stances on various of the bookrsquos conun-

drums and they provide questions to prompt

the reader to further reflection The best feature

of this short primer on the book of Job is that it

draws one to read the book of Job itself rather

than substituting lengthy commentary for the

biblical text Students pastors and laity can all

benefit from this delightfully accessible invitation

to the book of Jobrdquo

A MIDLIFE CRISIS OPPORTUNITY

At midlife our perspective can become blurry

Midlife is a disruptive season where we collide

with limitations on all sides There is more of

life in the rearview mirror than on the road

ahead of us and we wonder if our lives so farhave been worthwhile We are uncertain about

what lies ahead But midlife is also an oppor-

tunity to recalibrate our vision

Peter Greer and Greg Lafferty offer insight

for navigating midlife with fresh clarity and

purpose Drawing on the wisdom of the book

of Ecclesiastes they show how even in a world

that can seem meaningless at times God offers

perspective that anchors us renews us and

propels us back into the world in meaningful

mission and service

Rediscover who God has called you to be And

see the rest of your life with 4040 vision

A RICHER READING OF JOB

We often turn to the book of Job when

we encounter suffering We look for an

explanation for the questions ldquoWhy merdquo

or ldquoWhy herrdquo But what if it turns out

that although Job does suffer the book is

not really about his suffering

If ever a book needed a ldquoHow to Readrdquo

instruction manual it is the book of Job

And when two respected Old Testament

scholars team upmdashboth of whom have

written commentaries on Jobmdashwe have a

matchless guide to reading and appreciat-

ing the book Walton and Longman give

us the best of their expertise covering

the literary historical and theological

aspects of Job for students teachers and

busy pastors

ldquoWalton and Longman two seasoned commenta-

their efforts from seeking in its pages reasons for

human suffering to instead recognizing the lesson

to trust in a sovereign God within the incon-

their painful lot but assurance and rest come in

accepting the wisdom of the Almighty Thoughtful

We should read a poem very differently than we read a history book

drums and they provide questions to prompt

the reader to further reflection The best feature

of this short primer on the book of Job is that it

draws one to read the book of Job itself rather

than substituting lengthy commentary for the

biblical text Students pastors and laity can all

benefit from this delightfully accessible invitation

to the book of Jobrdquo

A RICHER READING OF JOB

We often turn to the book of Job when

we encounter suffering We look for an

explanation for the questions ldquoWhy merdquo

or ldquoWhy herrdquo But what if it turns out

that although Job does suffer the book is

not really about his suffering

If ever a book needed a ldquoHow to Readrdquo

instruction manual it is the book of Job

And when two respected Old Testament

scholars team upmdashboth of whom have

written commentaries on Jobmdashwe have a

matchless guide to reading and appreciat-

ing the book Walton and Longman give

us the best of their expertise covering

the literary historical and theological

aspects of Job for students teachers and

busy pastors

ldquoWalton and Longman two seasoned commenta-

their efforts from seeking in its pages reasons for

human suffering to instead recognizing the lesson

to trust in a sovereign God within the incon-

their painful lot but assurance and rest come in

accepting the wisdom of the Almighty Thoughtful

HOW TO READ SERIES

We should read a poem very differently than we read a history book

and we read both of them differently than wersquod read a novel The same is true

when it comes to our approach to Scripture Thatrsquos why this series from Tremper

Longman does just what its name describes helps you understand the

proper way to read various books of the Bible

How to Read Series includes Job and these four titles

ldquoWalton and Longman take unequivocal inter-

pretive stances on various of the bookrsquos conun-

drums and they provide questions to prompt

the reader to further reflection The best feature

of this short primer on the book of Job is that it

draws one to read the book of Job itself rather

than substituting lengthy commentary for the

biblical text Students pastors and laity can all

benefit from this delightfully accessible invitation

to the book of Jobrdquo

Commentary Job and The IVP Bible Background

Commentary Old Testament

A RICHER READING OF JOB

We often turn to the book of Job when

we encounter suffering We look for an

explanation for the questions ldquoWhy merdquo

or ldquoWhy herrdquo But what if it turns out

that although Job does suffer the book is

not really about his suffering

If ever a book needed a ldquoHow to Readrdquo

instruction manual it is the book of Job

And when two respected Old Testament

scholars team upmdashboth of whom have

written commentaries on Jobmdashwe have a

matchless guide to reading and appreciat-

ing the book Walton and Longman give

us the best of their expertise covering

the literary historical and theological

aspects of Job for students teachers and

busy pastors

Tremper Longman III

ldquoWalton and Longman two seasoned commenta-

tors on Job argue that readers should redirect

their efforts from seeking in its pages reasons for

human suffering to instead recognizing the lesson

to trust in a sovereign God within the incon-

gruities of life The pious may not understand

their painful lot but assurance and rest come in

accepting the wisdom of the Almighty Thoughtful

and accessible this is a welcome addition to the

How To Read seriesrdquo

HOW TO READ SERIES

We should read a poem very differently than we read a history book

and we read both of them differently than wersquod read a novel The same is true

when it comes to our approach to Scripture Thatrsquos why this series from Tremper

Longman does just what its name describes helps you understand the

proper way to read various books of the Bible

5 TITLES 946 $8600 CLUB PRICE $6020

How to Read Series includes Job and these four titles

ldquoWalton and Longman take unequivocal inter-

pretive stances on various of the bookrsquos conun-

drums and they provide questions to prompt

the reader to further reflection The best feature

of this short primer on the book of Job is that it

draws one to read the book of Job itself rather

than substituting lengthy commentary for the

biblical text Students pastors and laity can all

benefit from this delightfully accessible invitation

to the book of Jobrdquo

HOW TO READ SERIES

We should read a poem very differently than we read a history book

and we read both of them differently than wersquod read a novel The same is true

when it comes to our approach to Scripture Thatrsquos why this series from Tremper

Longman does just what its name describes helps you understand the

proper way to read various books of the Bible

ldquoWalton and Longman take unequivocal inter-

pretive stances on various of the bookrsquos conun-

drums and they provide questions to prompt

the reader to further reflection The best feature

of this short primer on the book of Job is that it

draws one to read the book of Job itself rather

than substituting lengthy commentary for the

biblical text Students pastors and laity can all

benefit from this delightfully accessible invitation

to the book of Jobrdquo
