Bible Study Relationships

Working through the book of Job, Sarah Walton (author of Hope When It Hurts) and her husband Jeff reflect on their own experiences in a marriage that has faced chronic illness, baggage from the past, a child with neurological challenges, and financial difficulties—and show how to cling to Christ and each other. This is not a "how-to" guide on having the best marriage, but rather, a walk alongside you and your spouse, sharing the realities of suffering and the effects it can have on a marriage.

Very rarely in the Bible does God command someone to "stay". He opens a door, and then he invites us to walk through it—into the unknown. And how we choose to respond will ultimately determine the lives we will lead and the people we will become. In fact, to fail to embrace the open door is to miss the work God has made for us to do. In All the Places to Go...How Will You Know?, best-selling author John Ortberg opens our eyes to the countless doors God places before us every day.
