Today is day one of shipping the new Digging Deep materials! At PTP, we reviewed the “More”, revealed the “Hand” and revived the zeal for our studies. I am excited. Glenn is in the basement getting to those first Branson prioritized packages. We will get to all of them just as fast as we can.
I hope you are inviting still. I believe there is more interest to date than we have seen in any year and that has to be a good thing. We are dealing with more than a fun process (which it is!). We are dealing with the Word of God in eternal minds: His hand working to bring us to Him for eternity. It’s a huge burden to facilitate God’s powerful hand in lives, but we have the extreme privilege of doing that with Digging Deep. Please pray for every aspect, but especially for the Word in hearts that need salvation.
If you are new to the study, be sure to go and watch the video that is featured at the top of the Digging Deep page. It’s helpful to know where to look for the
monthly podcast, the audio dig-a-bits and more in this spot.
Remember the free download! If your books are delayed for any reason, you can always download and at least get an idea of where the study is going. We know you want to be writing in those books, though, so we are doing our best. We are working and praying to get the materials out as quickly as we possibly can! (Many were able to pick up the orders in Sevierville.)
This little video is in several places online. Share if you possibly can. ( You can share from my personal Facebook page! ) We are getting several non-member studies from this video. So share and play a part in this evangelism if you can. IMG_6648
Here’s the very first paragraph from the intro to “The Hand of God”….I am praying hard for our reach to His powerful hand as we get ready to study this together.
The Hand of God. It’s a metaphor I have come to love so very much. The merciful hand. The mighty
hand. The out-stretched hand. Why does God describe to us His hand and its workings? He doesn’t
have a hand with literal joints and flesh, of course. He is spirit. He doesn’t need to be like me to
accomplish whatever He wants with His hands. In fact, of course, the only power in my hands is a tiny
tittle, by comparison, that is mine, only because I am in the image of God. But because He loves me
and wants me to see and be the recipient of His power in my life and the world around me, He has
described Himself to me in all the touching reaching, turning, holding and adjusting hand metaphors.
He wants me to vividly see that He has reached into the world of men since the garden of Eden and
He has worked with His hands to accomplish the purposes that help men who love Him get home to
Him one day. He effects change that is unfathomable to me with His hand and He does it effortlessly.
