Beloved Faith Maker is made up of 3 Parts, totalling a number of 16 chapters.Following is an extract from Chapter 1 - "Have you ever wanted to watch a movie, but instead of watching it from the start, you started in the middle and watched for five minutes? Then, weeks later, you watch either the same five minutes again, or you watch another five or ten minutes starting from another place in the movie.Do you think I'm nuts? Well, it would be nuts to try and watch a movie like that and follow what's going on. We don't watch movies like that, yet we often read the Bible that way.Agreed - the Bible is much, much bigger to read, listen to, or watch in just one sitting. The struggle is real. The Bible is big and to read it all overwhelms many people.This book is intended to help you with this dilemma as it equips you with a condensed version of events from beginning to end. It follows the books of the Old Testament chronologically up through the New Testament, so that you can watch a "movie" of the events playing off in your mind's eye while reading."Not only will the reader be taken on a journey through the Bible to know God more intimately, but also on a journey of discovering purpose and identity. Every chapter ends with a "Glory to Glory Q&A" whereby the reader will be able to assess his or her own spiritual journey of faith and victory. Personal growth doesn't come without challenges, right?Whatever your experiences are while reading this book, do not lose sight of the goal of being able to live a beautiful and blessed life in companionship with the Lord as He tenderly takes you from one level of glory to the next.
