The Explorers will gather again to come bring all sorts of experiences and understanding to share as they search out God's plan for their lives, His church and the world

This term we will be using the book The Stuff of Life as our travel guide.

All are welcome to attend this book study.

Synopsis

Life in the middle is a phrase that theologians use to depict the ordinary and common needs of modern people. It's the area between mundane practical matters and the esoteric philosophical considerations .While there are those who want to debate cerebral questions of human existence, most people don't have the time, energy or interest in these topics. These people are trying to navigate their way through a life that is driven by busyness and impacted by cost of living and intrusive technology.

Karl Faase's new book The Stuff of Life deals with the issues we all face every day. It covers the challenges and questions of life in the middle; loss, love, forgiveness, relationships, money, and it asks the question: can Christianity speak to the middle issues of life?

Karl Faase explores Biblical wisdom to help us make the most of the everyday. Each chapter brings Karl's down-to-earth insights and real-life examples to topics such as relationships, wisdom, loss, time, love, grace, hope, grace, hope, money, endurance, forgiveness and more. This is a great book for anyone wanting to navigate life and faith a little bit better. Ideal for small groups, with discussion questions for each chapter.
