Â
The DVD and this guide create an ideal package for adult and youth Sunday school classes, small groups, retreats, classrooms, families, as well as for individual study. Â
Topics for this 12-session guided group study include:
One Great Mission and Motivation
A Summary of Christian Hedonism
The Foundation of Christian Hedonism

The Grand Obligation (Part 1): Commanded to Rejoice

 Complete with Scripture, key quotations for reflection, penetrating questions, and five daily assignments per week, this study guide will help you understand why God’s pursuit of His glory and your pursuit of joy are not at odds—because God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.  Also includes a 6-session intensive track option.
