Making Space - Bible Study eBook

Making Space Bible Study eBook includes eight small-group sessions, applicable Scripture, “How to Use This Study,” and a group discussion guide. A vital component of a group member’s discipleship experience, this Bible Study Book includes optional personal-study activities that can be adapted to the individual’s specific needs or schedule.

Do you know what’s most important in life? Do you feel too busy to make time for those things?

This study gleans wisdom from the Book of Proverbs and from the example of Jesus to show you how to center your life on God’s priorities. You will examine the things that matter most to God and to you as a follower of Christ. Then you will learn to apply godly wisdom that will help you incorporate these activities into your busy life. In some cases, you will find that you are doing the wrong things. Or you might find that you are doing the right things for the wrong reason or in the wrong way, so they are not life-giving or fulfilling.

Each week’s session will function as a stand-alone message, providing great opportunities to invite friends and engage in conversations about a given topic through the week topically (for example, a neighborhood dinner to discuss parenting together or a focused time to build a budget).

Wisdom is learning how to do the right things at the right time in the right way. Allow God to show you what is most important in life and when and how to engage in those activities.
