Jobe Syndrome is a condition of spiritual distress that involves disappointment with God over the "Why?" questions: Why didn't you answer my prayer? Why did you let me contract cancer? Why is there so much pain and suffering in your world? Disappointment with God can progress to anger and disbelief: Where was God when I was abused? I wonder whether God exists (agnosticism) God does not exist (atheism) Satan is god (satanism) Much of the spiritual distress is emotional rather than intellectual, and this book offers a protocol for healing Jobe's painful emotions. Most of the content addresses the intellectual component: Science offers evidence for the existence of God} (There is an Intelligent Designer of the universe) Science offers evidence for the existence of evil (there is an original sin) Science offers evidence for the benevolence of God (God cares about us) "Your book has taken many ideas that I had over my life struggling with providing answers to friends and family on why God seems to have abandoned them? Is there a God?... Your writings have reinforced my thoughts on this. They have brought together many fragmented pieces of my education, both intellectual and spiritual, in one place...almost like you wrote this book for me Thank you for sharing your manuscript with me. You have touched my life with it." Robert Cencer "I truly enjoyed reading your manuscript]. You're right - it's not the usual kind of spiritual reading. But for those who question the existence of God, it is a MUST read. Actually, it's a MUST read for believers to strengthen their faith and help them argue the existence of God. The book could be considered a foundational level of Apologetics, where the existence of God is decisively defended." Philip Cousino "The book you're about to read will offer you the strong possibility, if not the certainty, that God is real."
