Bible Study/Book Discussion

I'd like to start a Bible study/ book discussion on suffering. The book is In the Shadow of the Cross, by Glenn Penner (Living Sacrifice Books), the best resource, in my opinion. I've read and studied it several times, and have developed two sets of study questions. One set is for novices. The other is for theological heavyweights (evangelical tradition) The one for novices deals with the subject of suffering, topically. Resources include the Bible, In the Shadow of the Cross, and a book called The Triumphant Church, by Richard Wurmbrand. The questions for theological heavyweights use the Bible and In the Shadow of the Cross. The questions are a study guide for In the Shadow of the Cross. The most economical price for the books is found at The Voice of the Martyrs' US website, persecution.com. Or call them at 800-747-0085. If you are interested, get the book(s) that correspond to whether you're a heavyweight or novice. Maybe you're somewhere in between. Email me at leewardhope@yahoo.com. If you live in the Indianapolis, IN area, maybe we can meet personally to study. If you're not, we might try an online discussion. I plan to start a group at indychristianmedia.com/groups today, if possible.
