Drawing Near to God Ministries

Joanne PictureDearest DNG friends,

 

It has been only four weeks since our final celebration luncheon together and I miss being with all of you already! I was thrilled to hear that some of the small groups are still getting together for lunch, and others continuing to meet to study God's Word.  For those of you who were unable to be with us, remember that Making Space for the Words of Jesus is online.

 

 I have been busy working on my new book and preparing the study guide for next year's study of James. I can't begin to tell you how excited I am about studying the book of James together. During this season of lent, I hope that each of you have taken the time to make space for God. Often we need to reposition our lives for Kingdom living. There are many things that tug at us demanding our attention but remember to keep your eyes on Jesus and He will order your days.  May you encounter the Lord not only during Lent but also throughout the year as you draw near to Him.

 

In His Name,

Joanne

Bible Next Season at Drawing Near to God Ministries...

The Book of James:

 Attaining Spiritual Maturity

It's time for the church to grow up. The book of James teaches us that spiritual maturity is evident when we turn our trials into triumphs, stand against temptation, care for the poor, and are filled with patience and wisdom.   As spiritually mature Christians, the world will not define us, 

 but we instead will define the world.
