The reality of suffering in the world returns front and center, sadly, not only in the United States, Mexico, and Central America in the wake of devastating natural disasters, including severe flooding in the northeast, but also in Pakistan and India where so many have lost loved ones or their own lives.
Our senior editor, Patrick Henry Reardon, biblical scholar and Orthodox Priest, has written a fine book that addresses the ancient question of suffering, The Trial of Job. Touchstone magazine has a small supply of this slim volume that we are offering to new subscribers free with a new paid subscription to the magazine. It also may be ordered, of course, from your usual sources, by subscribers who want a biblical perspective on this mystery of the human experience. Recommended reading.
