What On Earth Am I Here For? Bible Study Guide (The Purpose Driven Life)

*The official study companion for Rick Warren's bestselling book—The Purpose Driven Life. Discover the answer to life's most fundamental question: What is my purpose?

In this six-session video-based Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), What On Earth Am I Here For? Rick Warren takes participants on a journey through life's most fundamental questions. Throughout these six sessions, you'll reflect on:

• What drives your life and gives it meaning.
• How to see life from God's view.
• Why life here on Earth is only a temporary assignment and what that means.
• What it looks like to glorify God with our very lives.

You are about to embark on a journey of discovery to dramatic spiritual and personal growth—the discovery that your life is not about you…You were created by God and for God, and when you understand that all-encompassing purpose, life begins to make sense. It is only in God that we discover our origin, our identity, our meaning, our purpose, our significance, and our destiny. Whether you are going to experience this adventure with a small group or on your own, this study will change your life.

When combined with the reading of The Purpose Driven Life, this study will give you and your small group the opportunity to discuss the implications and applications of living the life God created you to live.

Sessions include:

1. You Matter to God
2. You Were Planned for God’s Pleasure
3. You Were Formed for God’s Family
4. You Were Created to Become Like Christ
5. You Were Shaped to Serve God
6. You Were Made for a Mission

Designed for use with the What Am I Here For? Video Study (sold separately).
