Finding Direction in Times of Uncertainty
In the tumultuous journeys of life, there are moments that leave you feeling disconnected, lost, hurt, confused, and wondering where God is. A Way in the Wilderness by Kristel Acevedo offers a six-week Bible study designed for individuals or groups of any size, encouraging you that in those seasons of wilderness, God is with you.
Each week, Kristel leads readers through reflections on a biblical figure who faced their own wilderness--from the solitude of John the Baptist to the trials of the Israelites. Through these familiar stories, she draws parallels to life now, helping you see that amidst the struggles is often where God meets you most profoundly.
- Learn from the story of John the Baptist how strength in the wilderness comes from God, not yourself
- Experience alongside Hagar how God still sees and cares even though the world is broken
- See through the story of Adam and Eve how God covers your sins in Christ's righteousness and offers hope for restoration in the midst of the wilderness
- Reflect on the journey of the Israelites and the importance of keeping your focus on God
- Delve into the life of Elijah to understand how God meets you even in the depths of despair
- Through studying Jesus's experience, learn how the scriptures provide guidance to help you through the wilderness
Six weekly online teaching videos enhance your study, offering deeper insights. Whether you've felt the sting of isolation, the ache of lost direction, or the shadows of despair, A Way in the Wilderness will remind you that while you might not choose these experiences, they are opportunities for growth and reliance on a strength greater than your own.
Available in both English and Spanish, A Way in the Wilderness offers an invitation to meet God in the wilderness and to allow him to grow and transform you through it.
