Many people today want to learn more about God, but they express their lack of interest in read the bible because they do fully understand what they read. Growing In Christ is structured for ages twelve to twenty-seven because this age group has a greater hunger to learn more about life, themselves, and Jesus. Growing In Christ - Images of God's message To Us can be a blessing for this or any age group.
Image speak louder than words because images allow you to use your imagination to create your own imagined conversation with God. Images produce feelings and tell stories without uttering a single word. The images in Growing In Christ will prayerfully turn on your feelings, thoughts, emotions, and even prompt you to share the joy of your experience with others.
