The story of Job is one of the most remarkable bible stories of faith and perseverance. The trials that faced Job have long served Christians as a marker of the trust and faith that God would want our lives to be in spite of the tribulations we are facing. Many will say that the trials and tribulations that faced Job were well beyond the trials and tribulations we would face today.

But in the case of the lives of Theldoris and Don Maxey, a Job like existence is not too far removed from reality. This is their story; it's a story filled with tragedy, perseverance, and an unbelievable display of faith, that probably affords them a uniquely insightful view into the life of God's beloved servant Job.
