Sermon Clip: Twisted Scripture – Job
The Book of Job has often been misused as a way to explain the mysterious ways of God in suffering and pain.

In this short clip, Greg Boyd describes the kind of bad interpretation that goes along with the story of Job and some real world examples of people hurt by this picture of God.
