God is Closer Than You Think John Ortberg In the six-session small group Bible study, God is Closer Than You Think, John Ortberg helps you to discover and enjoy a vibrant, moment-by-moment relationship with God the Father. Intimacy with God can happen right now – a closeness you can feel and a reality you can experience – for yourself. God is closer than you think, and connecting with Him isn’t the exclusive domain of monks and ascetics. It’s for business people, high school students, busy moms, single men, single women…and most important, it’s for YOU! In God is Closer than You Think, Ortberg reveals the face of God waiting to be discovered in the complex mosaic of your life. This insightful and impactful small group study will help you: Find God where you least expect Him. Listen to God’s voice. Identify which pathway of relationship you’re uniquely designed to travel. Align yourself with the flow of the Holy Spirit. Draw closer to God even when he seems absent. Sessions include: God’s Great Desire for People Where is God in My World?
