Synopsis: This unique Bible study guide is designed to lead readers into a deeper experience of God's life-changing love through a cleansing interlude of repentance.Wherever they are in their spiritual journey, whatever personal circumstances they face, readers can receive God's empowering, healing grace through the gifts of confession, forgiveness, obedience, and gratitude. As the author explains, "The solution to our desire for rest and for renewal is simple, and life-threatening. Repentance-the turning away from ourselves and moving toward God."Through eight fascinating sessions, readers will be guided by exercises in Bible study, prayer, and self-reflection, all designed to help them redirect their attention to what God is doing in their lives. It's a masterful blend of traditional, inductive Bible study and a refreshing focus on authentic spiritual renewal and intimacy with God. This meditative guide is ideal for use individually, or together with a prayer partner or small group. Either way, Balm in Gilead will release the fragrant distillation of repentance into believers' lives.
