These days the terms good and God seem synonymous. We believe what s generally accepted as good must be in line with God s will. Generosity, humility, justice - good. Selfishness, arrogance, cruelty - evil. The distinction seems pretty straightforward. But is that all there is to it? If good is so obvious, why does the Bible say that we need discernment to recognize it? Good or God isn t another self-help message. This book will do more than ask you to change your behavior. It will empower you to engage with God on a level that will change every aspect of your life. Bobby Sharon Facilitated by: Sharon Yorks What: Good or God?
