Becoming Better Men

Men

“To me, this is a remarkable story of the role of faith in sustaining the richness of life. As each of the three men in the ‘Neighborhood’ navigate relationships, parenthood, activism, and work, they find discernment and sharpen the values that drive them through these epistolary exchanges. Filled with humor, insights, and provocative questions interlaced in the recordings of ordinary life experiences, we come away enriched by the emotional and cognitive intimacies shared with us by these lifelong friends in their journey into wakefulness.”

Redefining Job and the Conundrum of Suffering

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This scholarly yet readable work illuminates the rich social context and profound interpretive legacy of this paradigmatic tale of suffering, faith, resilience, perseverance, and ultimately, joy in the human condition. Adams invites us to rethink what it means to lay our trust in God in the midst of our brokenness. She calls us to develop tenets to live by, through which our own and Job’s suffering opens up spaces of compassion, love, and caring as we call ourselves to account for harm, blame, and complacency in crafting a meaningful life.”
