As you move from dos and don’ts to matters of the heart, you will see how they will become barometers of your love for God. You’ll discover areas of your life that are out of sync with His will, and you’ll receive wisdom for living in greater love, strength, and freedom in Christ. Includes a 30-page study guide ideal for personal or group use, helping you take the next steps toward joyful submission to God’s Word.
