  • Review 1: “The author’s spiritual reflections on Job are invigorating and wide-reaching. Rohr comments on the nature of evil, the vocation of being a bridge-builder, the way questions unfold the soul, the church of the future, and the role of the poor in it. The book is a profound resource which will enable you to rediscover the depth charges in this ancient story.” —Values and Visions
