Recommended Book of the Month

At some point, all Christians feel the need to readdress and reorient to move toward God's calling for their lives. Mark Jobe, president of Moody Bible Institute, has a new book called What Now? It is written for anyone who wants to emerge from stagnation and envision what could be best for their next season of life. You'll learn how to:

  • Be still and discern God's will for your life
  • Re-envision the possibilities of your calling
  • Turn away from isolation and turn to healthy community
  • Boldly step out into the unknown with faith

Don't let confusion or fear of the unknown keep you from moving toward the fullness of God's plan for your life. Instead, learn to listen to the spiritual whisper directing you to the next stage in your divine calling. Click here to order (not an affiliate link). Only $5.59.
