Learning Zeal from Elihu

July 26, 2020 ()

Bible Text: Job 32 |

Series:

Elihu bursts onto the scene in Job. We get an introduction on who he is and we consider his zealous passion and defense of God.

In his zeal we are rebuked and consider reasons that keep us silent rather than being bold in the defense and proclamation of our great God and his truth.



Job

The book of Job deals with the topic of suffering. But even more profound that questions surrounding suffering are questions surrounding the nature of God. This book, and thus this sermon series, explores the nature and character of God. The goal, to say with Job from a place of comfort in the midst of suffering, "I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you" (Job 42:5).
