Description
If you’ve ever wanted a deeper understanding of and intimacy with God, Little Lessons, Big Faith provides you with the tools you need. Based upon the Bible study lessons she uses with her own church congregation, Dr. Grimes examines such topics as the importance of Christian fellowship, understanding spiritual warfare, and pursuing intimacy with God. Through the completion of these “little lessons”, both new and seasoned believers can deepen their relationship with God. Many Christians want to develop a Bible study routine but figuring out how to study consistently can be challenging. Even though most churches offer weekly Bible study classes, the pressures of modern life can make it difficult for people to attend. And while many churches provide digital options for Bible study, some may want a more personalized approach, one that allows them to regulate the pace and subject matter. Little Lessons, Big Faith provides a viable solution to these needs. Little Lessons, Big Faith includes 52 lessons - one for each week of the year. Most importantly, each lesson concludes with a "Go Deeper" exercise that is designed to help the reader create practical strategies for spiritual growth and development. True intimacy with God can be achieved only through regular immersion in His words. Little Lessons, Big Faith provides the way.
