Description
The Puzzling Questions course is for those whose frame of reference simply doesn't include anything about the Bible or the Christian faith. It provides a space where our friends can take time to explore some of life's deeper questions, discover the issues that really concern them, develop their own spiritual vocabulary and connect with others who are on a spiritual journey too. The course covers basic but vital questions: o Who am I? o What is God like? o What happens after I die? o How can I be happy? o Why is there suffering in the world? o What is the spiritual world and how does it impact my life? This Leader's Guide contains detailed advice on how to run the course. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the Puzzling Questions Workbook and the professionally presented Puzzling Questions DVD. The CD attached to the Leader's Guide contains the text for six talks which can be used in addition to the DVD. For course participants who want to dig a little deeper, please see the accompanying book How Can I Be Happy?
