Growing in Faith Small Group Book Study

We have selected as our next study resource book Messy Spirituality, God’s Annoying Love for Imperfect People, by Mike Yaconelli.
Our focus is on spiritual growth through study of a variety of faith-based materials. We encourage attendees to share thoughts and understandings of the material through discussion and listening to each other in a safe environment.
Book Overview:

“I Guess I’m not a very good Christian. Do you feel like: I don’t pray enough, don’t read my bible enough, don’t share my faith enough, don’t love God enough. Then this book is for you. Messy Spirituality was written for the silent majority of us who have been convinced that we just don’t do Christianity right. We spend most of our lives worried about what we don’t do instead of what we have done, focused on our imperfections instead of God’s fondness for the imperfect. Why? Because we have been bombarded with books, tapes talks, seminars and movies convincing us that real Christianity is all about perfection.
Here are truths that can cut you loose from the tyranny of ought to’s and open your eyes to the deep Spirituality of being loved, shortcomings and all, by the God who meets you and transforms you in the midst of a messy and unpredictable life.”
