Exercise 02After this lesson if you are still left questioning whether you are in Christ or if you realize that you have not properly followed God’s direction to be in Christ, we want to provide you with a few options that can help you take the next step. If you would like to speak with someone, the group leader(s) can invite a Mentor to this study group who can help answer any questions you might have. If you are not a group leader, you can create your own personal group, which immediately invites a Mentor to join you in a one-on-one personal study. If you would like a more immediate response, you are always welcome to email us your questions directly at help@mathetis.org. If you are looking for a way to continue studying on your own or as a group on this topic, check out the course, In Need of a Savior, which goes into further detail on what it means to be a follower of Christ and how you can enjoy the blessings that are found in Him. For this exercise, share how you want God to transform you as you continue this study together. As a group pray for each individual’s request and give encouragement to one another.No Answers
