This series of studies has been designed specifically to help a group become a small, closely knit community motivated and empowered to worship and serve God.
Each book in the series will help your group pursue the mystery of God, encourage the meeting of each other's needs, and how to live practically and genuinely in today's complex world.

9 sessions per book. Session format: overview, on your own, group discovery, let's act, group worship. Bible text included, final two sessions deal with personal and group application.

Knowing God is of the utmost importance. This knowledge is, in fact, a matter of life and death. When we talk about knowing God, we're not just talking about head knowledge, doctrine, and theology. Knowing God involves our hearts as well.
A relationship with God can mirror human relationships. It can be a distant relationship, a strained relationship, or an intimate relationship. So how do we develop the kind of relationship with God we want and need?
Through this study, you'll find out what intimacy is and discover some of its boundaries. Not only that, you'll be invited to establish a closer relationship with Almighty God, who desires a personal relationship with you.
