The Bible is the single most popular book in all of history. It has been the best-selling book in the world for years! The Bible is God's book and God's voice. In Max Lucado's Bible Study Series, Life Lessons, Max responds to the questions, "How do we use the Bible?" and "What can we do to make the Bible real in our lives?" He believes the answer is found in these three biblically based steps:
1. Ask God to help. We should read prayerfully. Invite God to speak to you personally.
2. Seek each day for God's daily message. Study the Bible. Understanding will come.
3. Knock at God's door. Make yourself available. God will reveal Himself to you.
Jesus told His followers in Matthew 7:7, "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."
These items and more are available in our Library
