Six Sessions on Experiencing the Presence of God. The story of the Bible is the story of God's desire to be with people. God is extending Himself, stretching out to reach us, to fill our lives with His presence.

Every moment of your life is like a page in a Where's Waldo? book. God is there, the Scriptures tell us - every one of them. But the ease with which He may be found varies from one page to the next.

In this six-session Zondervan Groupware dvd award-winning author John Ortberg serves as guide and interpretive leader for experiencing the presence of God in everyday life.

With his engaging and humorous style, Ortberg transforms our view of God's presence from one that may seem hidden or distant to one that is closer than you think.

In this DVD, Ortberg is your teacher in six sessions that will help you and your group experience the intimacy you long for with God--and that he longs to have with you. Also included is a Leader's Guide with complete, step-by-step instructions and tips that will equip you, the leader, to facilitate each session with ease.

John Ortberg takes you on a journey that will help you:

Experience God's presence in the busy matrix of your life
Hear God speak in ways you understand
Discover God's desire to be with you this moment

GOD IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK Sessions:

God's Great Desire for People
Where Is God in My World?

Question
Ian Cheffy
I am thinking of using "God is Closer than You Think" with my life group during Lent. If we buy the DVD is it also necessary for individual group members to have copies of the book, or are the DVD and book designed to be used independently - the DVD by groups and the book by people on their own? Thank you for clarifying this.

It is not necessary for individual group members to have the book but you may find it useful for them to have a copy of the participants guide.
