Moments Of Joy Study Guide

In South Louisiana, we have a word in the Gulf Coast area called, “Lagniappe” [Lonˈyop]. It means “a little something extra” also known as “a baker’s dozen”. I’d like to think of this guide as a “Lagniappe” to the “Moments of Joy” book because it doesn’t just present a list of questions to answer or discuss, it also provides new insights and additional Scripture references that are not found in the book. But to get the most out of this study guide, it is best used with the “Moments of Joy” book. First, read a book entry and then find the corresponding entry in this guide for a meaningful study of God’s Word. You will find the Bible to be timeless, practical, and beneficial for every area of your life. How to Use this Guide: Some of the material presented in this guide will encourage you to take a deeper look at your thought patterns, attitudes, habits, emotions, discipline, and the way you interact with the Lord and others. It may even expose some half-truths or myths you picked up over the years that are not scriptural. This guide will also help you identify and begin addressing issues that are causing you distress so that you find lasting freedom and healing in your life. It is intended to direct you to Jesus, who is not only the Author of all life, but the Healer of our entire person. With that said, if you have experienced extreme trauma, seeking professional help or guidance from someone skilled in inner healing may further assist you in the restoration process. Small Group Leaders: If you are looking for a 6, 8, or 12-week (and beyond) small group study then this study guide along with the book can be a perfect resource for you. Of the 75 entries, you can simply choose the ones that pertain to a certain subject matter that you’d like to focus on in your group. In this way, you can customize the material that best fits both the needs of your members and the time frame of your group. To the Individual Studier: This study guide is designed to help you identify and overcome obstacles that may be hindering you from experiencing greater freedom and joy in life. It will also assist you in discovering and walking in your God-ordained purpose!
