Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The consoling words which Jesus speaks to his disciples just before his Pasison ("You have stood by me in my trials") are a reminder to us that Christian life, like the life of human beings generally, is marked by trials. For this reason, the author has chosen the Book of Job as a primary text for reflection, although other passages of the Old and New Testaments are also offered for meditation.
