The Be-With Factor student guide (Book reviews)

Six questions students need to ask bout life with God By Bo Boshers & Judson Poling

Having the right person in your life can make a huge difference. Jesus knew that. He spent time with his disciples, talking with them, listening to them, having fun with them. He chose to be with them in everyday life.

That's the kind of role a wise, caring mentor can have in your life. The discussions and activities in this book help you and your mentor experience the same relationship Jesus had with his disciples. And here's the key: it's not just about doing another Bible study, but also about personal connections, living life Jesus did.

Six engaging questions get you started.

1. How does God show me He's real?
2. What does God want from me?
3. What purpose does God have for my life?
4. Why does it matter what I believe about God?
5. How does God help me stay strong when life is hard?
6. What kind of people does God want in my life?

If you are leading this study, consider using it with The Be-With Factor: Mentoring Students in Everyday Life for additional training and insight on each lesson.
