Publisher's Description
In a world where everyone seems to be preoccupied with "living their best life," some of us are just trying to make it through the day. We find ourselves in a season of life where the bad days seem to outnumber the good . . . by a wide margin. We remember what the prime of our life looked like, and we know that what we're experiencing today isn't it. The good news is, we're not alone. Someone has walked this road before. His name was Job, and he literally had it all . . . until he lost it. As Job looked back on the "prime of my days," he offers us a glimpse into the type of life that is both pleasing to live and pleasing to God. And he points to a resurrection of our prime. Are you curious as to what this sort of life looks like? If yes, then this book is for you.

“When I first got a copy of Mark’s book on Job I was expecting your typical take on ‘when bad things happen to good people.’ But that was not what it was about at all. In fact I thought it a refreshing and creative new perspective on Job that I had never heard before. Enjoyable and original reading, it left me wanting more from him. Like any great book the major points are well illustrated with personal stories and great research. Mark’s themes continue to linger in my memory and inform my faith journey.”
“In The Prime of My Days, the reader is transported to the land of Uz to closely examine the life of Job. Written with practical analogies, sprinkled with teachable moments, and built on a solid, biblical foundation, author Mark McConnell draws parallels between his own life, the life of Job, the life of Jesus the Messiah, our lives as readers, and how they are all connected. McConnell proves himself a writer worthy of honor, inspiring us all to live the prime of our days to the fullest!”
