About God, Are You There?Popular teacher and speaker Kay Arthur has developed a study specifically for those who are unfamiliar with the Bible. It introduces readers not only to God’s Word but to the God of the Word. In this exciting study, Kay Arthur takes readers by the hand, gently leading them through the Gospel of John and introducing the inductive method of study. Readers will come away with solid, tested Bible study methods and an understanding of who God is and how to know Him better. God, Are You There? is a life–changing adventure into a beloved gospel. It’s easy to use—a “quick–start” program for anyone new to the truths of God’s Word or for a group needing just the right number of lessons. |
