1. What is the need for this Bible study?

            In my work with internationals, I realized that there were very few resources available for people who didn't have a Christian background.  Virtually all published studies assume personal faith and some Bible knowledge.  In this workbook I start at the beginning  Creator God, Mans need, Jesus as Savior, and the Holy Spirit.  Many seekers and new believers are unfamiliar with the Bible.  What's Missing Inside You? writes out every Bible verse  there's nothing to look up. 

2. Who will benefit from this study?

            This workbook is not for you if you are content with the way you are.  It is uniquely written for non-Christians and new believers.  What's Missing Inside You? has been used to disciple internationals, business professionals and students.  Starting at square one, the concepts are explained in simple terms for people who are unfamiliar with the Bible.  Mature believers will not only be challenged, but be equipped with a valuable resource for discipling others.

3. What is the format of each lesson?

            Each lesson of approximately 14 pages includes clear scriptural teaching, numerous real-life stories and quotes from various Christian authors.  At the end of each lesson are Individual Response Questions and a Personal Assessment. 

4. How can I get the most from this workbook?

            It is recommended that you study this book with a small group (2-10).  Group members are asked to prepare the lesson in advance.  The Individual Response Questions and the Personal Assessment are the basis for your small group discussion.

5. What help is given for the leader?

            A sixteen page leaders guide is included in the workbook. 

            It includes:
