Summary

The purpose of the Daring Disciples Series as defined by its authors, professors at Columbia International University and Columbia Bible College respectively, is to provide believers with life-related study materials which will enable them to observe, interpret and apply God's word for themselves. Each study features an anecdotal approach, allowing the material to create identification with the reader. There is also a strong emphasis on the joy of self-discovery of biblical truth and the application of that troth to everyday living. The lesson plans in each Leader's Guide add questions not found in the text and provide supplementary commentary and teaching tips. Each text includes diagrams, charts, quotations and a practical one-verse method for sharing Christ. For college-age and up. God uses a variety of life experiences to reveal the extent of a person's faith and to strengthen his/her capacity for trust.
