Speaking of classics, the book of JOB in the Old Testament has always been considered one of the greatest stories of ruin and restoration known to mankind. And Job has a modern interpreter that has a gift for putting such classics in beautiful poetry. John Piper has done an amazing job on the very difficult subject of suffering. Watch this trailer for a sample of JOB in poetry.
