    About this ebook

    Small Group Bible Study books for your small group:  Real life event with probing questions, bible passages dealing with the event and exercises to follow.  This is a real life event with reflection on the event, followed with a study from the Word relevant to the situation with a series of reflective questions.

    "For some, the wounds of the heart are beyond the reach of close friends or family members. This is especially true when one is wounded within the very nucleus of society that God has ordained for us to know of Him and his love, the family. When this sacred trust of love is distorted and maligned by those who are called our father or mother, the hurt is deeper than a human’s ability to heal. This study is about such an event and, other  than God’s touch, nothing can meaningfully mend these broken hearts."

    Cary Holbert

    Cary Holbert (BA, MDIV, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, Triple P Parenting Accreditation, SHIP Counselor ) President of (dba) Jonahbooks.com Inc. For 29 years he struggled for a sense of purpose and meaning to life while just going through the motions of living. Darkness has consumed me and hopelessness is my heart. I long to cry, but death is my master and liberty beyond reach. I was a prisoner by choice with no key to unlock my shackles. I did not call for help nor cared. Then from a distance while working as a Business Manager in the Automobile business in 1986 I heard a sound like the blowing of wind rustling through the trees. The rushing wind penetrated deep into my soul. It was the Son of Man who saw me in despair. The light of the gospel has come to awaken my dead soul. The screams of death have left me and the Holy Spirit has taken up residence. Life has overtaken me and I now see the Son of God, my Christ, my Savior and what I could not do He has done. My soul is overcome with joy and expressed with shouts of praise that shatter glass. My being is now an offering for His service. Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me! I finally see! "The light of the world" has opened my mind to the truth of existence and purpose for living. Cary soon went on to complete the Master's of Divinity program at Columbia Biblical Seminary and then ordained by the PCA and now Pastor Emeritus in the Christian Reformed Church. He has had extensive experience in for-profit and non-profit organizations and currently serves on several non-profit boards. Dirty Feet Ministries Inc is going one-step farther to-simply-serve and provide life-skills training to small organization who have limited resources wanting coaching, consulting, training and encouragement in their faith journey.
