    About this ebook

    This four-part study is an excellent beginner’s manual to the faith and reading the scriptures. You will learn the faith stories of four people in the Gospels who faced the same challenges we face such as despair, anxiety, greed, and judgment:
    * Martha;
    * the father of the possessed son;
    * the Canaanite mother of a troubled daughter, and
    * Zacchaeus.

    Learning their stories will help you examine and discover your faith story. “Profiles in Faith” includes a step-by-step process for praying and meditating with the Bible which you will use with each session and can be used beyond this study with all your scripture reading.

    The North Church study guides are ideal for both individual and small-group use, and as companion guides to sermon series. Each study guide includes background information and questions for personal reflection and small-group discussions. And all of the studies have been “road tested” with a real congregation — North United Methodist Church in Indianapolis, Indiana.
