Jeff Schreve thought he had faith all figured out—until one unexpected question shattered that illusion: “Are you saved?” What followed was a surprising, heart-stirring journey from religious routine to real relationship with Jesus.

The health of your heart, your home, and your faith hinges on this one habit. Make church attendance part of your plan, not your leftovers.

I have seen and experienced many things that turn people off and cause them to leave and not come back. For most churches, I don’t believe they do these things with malicious intent, but when they happen, instead of welcoming the new visitor back, it pushes them away.

To be effective publicly, we must be efficient and diligent in our private studies. So, the question arises: how do I get the most from my Bible study?
