		<description><![CDATA[In Job 1 and 2 we see a divine interview as the angels present themselves before God along the lines of a royal audience. Satan came in with the angels and God initiates discussion with Satan. There are very few differences between these two discussions. In each (all passages from the NIV):

		<description><![CDATA[As we continue into the story of Job (we’re still in chapter one), we see God as the great restrainer of chaos and evil. God places a hedge of protection around his loved ones and the only harm that happens is because God permits it. Job presents us with Satan in a divine audience. Satan [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Looking deeper into Job and finding his view of God or the author’s view of God we learn something else rather quickly. One of the deepest questions of history has been the philosophical Question of Evil. It is asked all through history through philosophy, most of the world’s religions and is asked in scripture.

		<description><![CDATA[I’m preaching this week on John 12:43, “for they loved praise from men more than praise from God.” This passage got me thinking about our lives today.

Then he can take pride in himself, without comparing himself to somebody else, for each on should carry his own load” (NIV). He uses a word that shocks many believers if used positively. This word is pride. Some believers mistakenly think the scriptures [...]]]></description>

I always joke that these are the easiest part of any Bible to find because the pages are usually still stuck together.
