Great small group study

I am leading a small group study using this book in our church and must say that, to a person ,the class members love it. Her clear, powerful writing style is easy follow. The leaders guide is good and the questions are thoughtful and have lead to great discussions. I highly recommend it for an 8 week study.!

The Power of a Focused Heart

This is one of the best "Bible Study" books I've ever studied or taught. It's thought-provoking and far from a "#1,2,3" approach where you're expected to spit back the "right" answer... I am loving it and the group I'm facilitating is, too!
