Chapel Talk, 2008 January 16 / Heather Casteel

In recounting her teaching experience of at-risk students in Seattle, math teacher Heather Casteel reflects on the trials of Job, "What happens when you try really hard, and it still isn’t good enough? When you do everything right, and still lose? Everyone has experienced this kind of unexpected defeat, and I wanted to see what, if any, advice or comfort Job can provide, and if there is another moral we can glean other than waiting for God to come down and fix our tragedies for us."
