With more than one million copies sold, When God Doesn’t Make Sense is an immensely practical book for those who are struggling with trials and heartaches they can’t understand. Why does disease, natural disaster, divorce, rejection, death, or some other sorrow seep into our lives when we are trying to serve the Lord? It just doesn’t seem fair! This book deals unflinchingly with life’s most troubling question—“Why?” Drawing on his long experience as a Christian psychologist and family counselor, Dr. Dobson brings hope to those who have almost given up. When God Doesn’t Make Sense also helps believers avoid the “betrayal barrier”—the sense that God is abandoning them amid the storms of life. Now with a new foreword by R. T. Kendall.

Renowned in the blogosphere as The Anchoress and as Catholic Portal editor of the popular Patheos.com, Elizabeth Scalia offers a powerful critique of the “gods” we worship today, reminding readers that life’s deepest desires can be satisfied only in Christ. Strange Gods, Scalia's debut book, is packed full of the iconoclastic vim and vigor that has won her a large, faithful Internet following. She presents readers with a surprising look at the ways in which modern people still commit the sin of idolatry in their everyday lives. While literal golden calves no longer dot the landscape, Scalia describes how legitimate loves become obsessively twisted into idols. She unmasks idolatry in a number of everyday experiences—friendships that become needy or possessive, commitments political and religious that grow so intense they lead to hatred of others, to name a few—and points to the incarnation of Christ and authentic worship of him as a way out of idolatry and into peace, happiness, and love.

Excerpt from The Strange Ways of God: A Study in the Book of Job This little book is not in any sense a commentary upon or a critical exposition of the book of Job. The larger part of the material was originally used in a series of lectures intended for a popular audience and designed to increase the interest in, and to aid in a better understanding of this ancient poem. The literary quality of the book of Job is such as to give it a high place among the worlds masterpieces, but the many faulty translations in the Authorized Version, the ill-considered arrangement of the parts of the poem as to their literary form in an ordinary copy of the Scriptures, and a widespread misconception as to the main purpose of the argument, have tended to obscure its beauty. In the main I have used the translation given in the Revised Version and the literary arrangement found in Moulton's Modern Reader's Bible, Here and there, however, I have used my own paraphrase where it seemed to me the essential meaning could be more clearly rendered. I have occasionally quoted together lines which stand apart in the text, without the insertion at the customary marks, but in this I am sure no violence has been done at any point to the authors meaning, nor has the essential course of his argument been in any wise disturbed.
