Ignite Your Passion for God
By Kay Arthur & Mark Sheldrake
Review by Elder Karen
I have always enjoyed books by Kay Arthur and her Precepts for Life ministry.
I believe she is one of the best teachers around. What attracted me to this book was that it had
the potential to be used as a small group study. And to my delight it can be.
Most adults do not like to do “homework” anymore, so this Bible study would be an excellent choice to
use. For anyone who has experienced “dryness” in their relationship with God, through this
book they can rekindle their fire for the things of God (prayer, worship, witnessing & studying the Word).
The only negative is if you are someone who doesn’t like to mark up their Bible, then you
may want to skip those suggestions. Overall I give this book a five star.
I received this book for free from Waterbrook Multnomah Publishing Group

Donations to the Library
All books and/or other media donations are welcome and
greatly appreciated. Please understand that the library is guided by the following policy:
- Donated materials will be reviewed and, if appropriate, added
to the collection. Materials that are not added to the library will either be returned to the donor, or sold or donated by
the church according to the donor’s preference.
- Books should be in good physical condition. Please do not simply bring us everything you wish to discard! Half Priced
Books is no longer accepting any print materials dated prior to 1985. This leaves us one less outlet to whom we may sell or
donate unwanted materials.
- Pamphlets,
study workbooks and home school textbooks are not appropriate donations.
