Behind the Series: Seriously, God?

Pop quiz: The book of Job is about _____?

Pastor Mike's answer might surprise you. In fact, it almost resulted in Amber getting into a car accident.

Pastor Mike and Amber Albee Swenson give us the goods behind May's sermon series, "Seriously, God?" which looks at the book of Job. They talk about why there's pain in life, why many of us tend not to comfort friends during times of tragedy, how the book of Job is a massive warning about what happens when we insist on asking why, and the reminders we can look to in order to remember that God is big.
