Abraham gives us an unforgettable portrait of
faith. Daniel is a classic example of holiness. And through her willingness to risk her own life,
Esther shows us what commitment means. This LifeGuide explores the lives of these and other
Bible characters. Their example helps us live in the present by learning from people in the
past.
This revised LifeGuide Bible study features questions for starting group discussions and for
meeting God in personal reflection, together with expanded leader�s notes and a new �Now or
Later� section in each study.
