The hardest part about making a big change in your life is knowing where to start. But as Chinese philosopher Lao-Tzu stated, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
"Biblical Lessons," by Robert Ridings is a guide to a deeper understanding of God's plan and leading a more fulfilling life, based on the Bible-focused men's small group classes the author manages in local prisons, nursing homes and senior homes.
Ridings' new book draws influence from the 12-step Recovery in Christ program the author attends, as well as his unique background and expertise in lay counseling.
"The world is full of people suffering from anxiety, worry, anger, or unforgiveness," Ridings says. "God wants his people to live with peace and joy by trusting Him."
"Biblical Lessons" consists of 52 topics, which are discussed using Scriptures, comments, and questions based on the Word of God.
Ridings' insights about living for eternity, trusting God's perfect love, living in the family of God, getting closer to God and living with Godly wisdom speaks provides readers with the framework to consider their own paths in life.
"In my 10 year walk with the Lord, I have experienced what is written in the book," Ridings says. "'Biblical Lessons' is designed to provoke deep thought and deep examination of ourselves and our Christian life."
