The path of your life will change each time you hold fast to your faith. This book is about choices. If there is one thing universal in the human experience, it's that we make choices every day. Our choices range from determining how much we'll spend for a cup of coffee to whom we'll spend the rest of our lives with, but only one choice determines where we'll spend eternity. This devotional immerses you into the lives of six Biblical characters whom God brought to the sharp point of radical decisions-decisions that would change the course of their earthly existences. We might think these six people have nothing to do with us in our century of instant communication, driverless cars, and computers mounted on our wrists, but the earth is old, and humankind hasn't changed. The choices we make each day still determine the next moment, the next year, the next millennium and have far-reaching consequences for the next generation. God included these characters in His Word for a reason, and the reason is us. Author Deb Gorman puts flesh on their bones, names them, fills in the canvas of their lives so spiritual truths can be extracted. So get ready to meet these ancient personalities in a brand-new way. Perhaps the next time you're faced with a decision, a potentially life-changing one, you'll remember to stop and consider where your decision might lead you and what effect it could have on those who follow you. God created you to impact others, and the choices you make today will influence others tomorrow. Questions for personal reflection or group study included at the end of each chapter.
