The Gift of Thorns Study Guide plus Streaming Video: Jesus, the Flesh, and the War for Our Wants - Softcover
Synopsis
Discover God's good will for our wants.
The Gift of Thorns Study Guide, a companion to The Gift of Thorns, dives deep into some of the hardest questions we wrestle with in the war for our wants:
- What do God's desires and Satan's desires have to do with us?
- Which desires did God place in our hearts at creation, and why?
- What can we do when we start losing our desire for God?
- Why do some unwanted desires persist after we start following Christ?
- Can we want a good thing too much?
- How can we discern which desires to crucify and which to nurture
This study guide has everything you need for a full personal or group experience.
- The study guide itself--with thoughtful introductions, questions for personal reflection and application, and discussion questions for leading a group or team.
- An individual access code to stream all video sessions online. (You don't need to buy a DVD!)
