Eternity Is Now in Session Participant's Guide: A Radical Rediscovery of What Jesus Really Taught about Salvation, Eternity, and Getting to the Good P - Paperback

by John Ortberg (Author), Gary Moon (Author)

A 5-session journey to discover what it really means to be "saved."
For Christians, perhaps the deepest expression of what we're waiting for is found in the phrase "eternal life." But what is eter-nal life? Why do we want it? And how do we know if we have it?

In the Eternity Is Now in Session Participant's Guide, bestselling author John Ortberg takes you on a radical journey of rediscovery, dispelling the myth that eternal life is something way out in outer space that we can only hope to experience after we die. Instead, John unpacks the reality that the moment we trust Christ, we are initiated into "eternal living" with God as a here-and-now reality, one that will continue beyond our life on this earth. We can truly know God, experiencing His presence, favor, and resurrection power right here on this earth--in the details, tasks, and challenges of daily, ordinary life.

And as we begin to know God this way, we'll realize each moment of our lives is a vehicle to the eternity we've been longing for all along.

What does it really mean to be saved?
Many people think "being saved" is about meeting the minimum entrance requirements for getting into heaven when they die. But that's not how Jesus talked about it. In fact, Jesus defines "eternal life" only once, with great precision, and in a way that has been largely lost in our day.

Filmed on location in Israel in cooperation with the Dallas Willard Center, the Eternity Is Now in Session curriculum thoroughly explores Jesus' definition of eternal life and what it really means to be a disciple of Christ.

This participant's guide contains discussion questions, Scripture for reflection, and group activities, as well as ideas for practical application designed to help you get the most out of the Eternity Is Now in Session DVD Experience.
