The Greater Call Podcast – Job | Integrity and Faith with Pastor Patrick Keim

In this episode of The Greater Call, host Mark Immelman is joined by Pastor Patrick Keim (Church of the Highlands – Auburn) for a powerful conversation on the Book of Job. Together they unpack what Job teaches us about suffering, integrity, and trusting God when life makes no sense.

From Job’s deep losses to God’s bigger perspective, this episode explores how faith can stay steady in hardship. Mark and Patrick also discuss leadership through pain, the power of being present with others, and how lament can deepen—not destroy—our relationship with God.
