One pastor said of this presentation:
Dr. Gordon Grose provides insights into the suffering and struggles of Job. The workshop gives practical help for suffering and loss in our lives today. Because loss and times of suffering are inevitable experiences of life, this workshop serves to equip us in the process of recovery and healing. The workshop was a good experience in our church. I recommend Dr. Grose and this helpful workshop for instruction and encouragement in the difficult times of life.

Gordon,
I came and visited your website tonight. The way the blog was delivered about Job, was so right on. It showed people how things that happened 2,000 yrs. or so ago, are still relevant to any society, anywhere.
