Lessons from Job, Part 1: There was a Man

Scripture: Job 1:1-12
Date: 08/23/1997 
This is the first in a series on the book of Job. It is a poetic book that talks about a great controversy between good and evil. Job was a very wealthy man but he was very pious and humble. The opening of the book turns from earth to a scene away from earth where Satan approaches God to accuse the Lord of protecting Job.
