Featured book

The Shadow of Christ in the Books of Job & Lamentations

2-book bundle. See how Christ is revealed in these instances of hardship in Scripture and how we can have hope through our suffering.

The Shadow of Christ in the Book of Job

With the heart of a pastor and the skill of a scholar, C. J. Williams shows how the ancient book of Job reveals our Savior, Jesus Christ. He demonstrates that Job's sufferings foreshadow the suffering and exaltation of our Savior, in whom we have a sure hope.

In Job, we find that the hardships of life are a call to humble ourselves, worship, and draw near to the Savior who suffered for us. As we put our trust in him, we discover that the sufferings of this life cannot be compared to the glory that God has in store for us.

The Shadow of Christ in the Book of Lamentations

The book of Lamentations counsels us on how to:

respond to hardships with faith,
grieve with hope,
and find the renewal of grace during the trials of life.

C.J. Williams explores how Christ was uniquely revealed during a historical moment of unparalleled suffering, and how Lamentations still assures us today that we have a gracious Savior who bears our sins and sorrows, giving us hope.
