4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent source of leadership material, August 14, 2009
This review is from: If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat - Leaders Guide (Paperback)
The Leaders' Guide contains far more material than anyone could effectively use, but that is all to the good. We were able to pick and choose the questions that best fit our small group and the timeframe we had for our study. And the Participants' guide was useful as a take-home, where the participants could explore and dig more deeply on their own.

This review is from: If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat - Leaders Guide (Paperback)
The book was challenging. The spiritual challenge that is presented
is one that clear and motivational. If you are looking to be challenged
to act in faith this book may be the catalyst that God will use.
