Job 13: Trusting God When Understanding Fails
Reading the Bible Daily with Dave
Host: Dave Jenkins • Date: Thursday, January 15, 2026
Show Summary
In Job 13, Job rebukes his friends for speaking falsely about God and turns directly to the Lord with bold, reverent honesty. At the heart of the chapter is a confession of persevering faith: “Though he slay me, I will hope in him” (Job 13:15). This episode helps you see how true faith rests in God’s character even when His ways are hidden—and how Job’s trust points us forward to Christ.
