Just like us. But in the 40 days between his resurrection and his ascension, Jesus restored and prepared them for their worldwide mission,\u201d says Steve Addison. He points out that biblical perspective comes before a specific commission. This book is an invitation to explore 40 decisive moments from Genesis to Revelation and discover your part in God\u2019s story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first 12 lessons are from the Old Testament, and the rest are from the New Testament. This is more of a Bible study, devotional guide, or small group resource than a book meant to be read straight through. The author recommends spending 30 minutes on each study: 10 reading specific passages in the scriptures, 10 reading his reflections, and 10 minutes responding in prayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08Z75R4VF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more or get the Kindle edition for US$8.49<\/a>.
