Hole in our Gospel
6 week study guide / http://www.theholeinourgospel.com/study-guide/
This is a story of how a CEO faced his own struggle to obey God, whatever the cost, and his passionate call for Christians to change the world by actively living out their faith. Believing that the "good news" is more than a private transaction between God and us, Stearns challenges readers with this question: “What does God expect of us?” Two thousand years ago, twelve people changed the world. Stearns believes it can happen again.
Adults begin curriculum September 26-27
