About this title

Synopsis

Lent is an ideal time to pray and reflect on the gift of life God offers to us through Jesus Christ. Traditionally, it is a time of repentance, fasting, and preparation for the coming of Easter. In God’s Gift of Life, Larry Beman invites us to create a holy space for Bible study and to open our hearts and minds through self-examination and reflection so that we might grow in our faith. He brings a relaxed and invitational tone to the study of the Scriptures and includes personal stories that help us to apply them to our daily lives.

Following in the footsteps of his carpenter grandfather, he is part of a team that offers home repairs to low income families in a rural county in Western New York. He is blessed to be married to Barbara Bruce.

Dr. Nan Duerling has been writing and editing curriculum resources for youth and adults since 1984.
