By: Robert D. Flanagan
Coming Soon
This innovative Bible study will help you know your true self and learn a new way of being as a child of God as you examine family connections, your relationships, the world around you, and God. Discover your core self by reflecting on God’s character and his creation, how he views humans, and how biblical figures discovered who they were through their relationship with each other and God. Thirty-six lessons over six weeks will facilitate personal growth and provide fresh insights to help you thrive through directed Bible readings with commentaries, daily prayers, and links to poems, art, and music.
Book Quotes
“We can read the Bible again and again, learning much history and wisdom, but with proper focus, it can reveal our core layer. How? The Bible is a divinely inspired text written by humans through which God still speaks.”
“Therefore, more than thought or experience, relationships with God and others are the best way to answer the fundamental question: Who am I? The answer emerges clearest in relationships with other people, things, and the divine. It has always been so.”
“We thrive when we relate to who and what is around us in a healthy manner. We can discover ourselves—who we are—in beautiful, elegant, hope-filled, positive ways.
We thrive by creating healthy life-giving relationships, where we know ourselves more fully as we relate with others and the world.
A spouse can cut and wound you just as deeply, or even more deeply, as a parent, sibling, or child, but can also hold your sorrows like no one else. Perhaps, like no one else, our soulmates represent hope in ourselves and the future.”
