A group of questions at the end of each chapter may be used by individuals to help them examine themselves and their own lives in terms of past experi-ence, present direction, and future goals. The questions will alsó be profitable for use by small groups of seekers who wish (continued on back fiap)
(continued from front flap) to discover God, the world and them-selves in new ways. The questions will not pry self revelation out of reluctant people, but rather will be an aid for groups and individuals eager for adven-ture in depth and breadth.
The questions are not intended to be a study guide for the accompanying chap-ter — rather they are a supplementary re-source for the generál topic of the chapter, calling the group or the individual reader to further exciting exploration.
