The Secret of Contentment

Juanita Purcell Β· 2006
74/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Juanita Purcell writes from more than fifty years of pastoral life, and that depth shows in how she grounds each lesson in Scripture without making it feel like a lecture. The twelve-lesson format is purpose-built for a women's small group, and the Regular Baptist theological grounding is consistent and clear throughout. If you are in that faith community or close to it, this is a reliable and earnest study guide that will repay the time.
