There are 4 lessons in this course.

Lesson 1

If we're to continue walking with the Lord, we must avoid certain potholes in life. In this study we'll look to the past, the present and the future. Psalm 139 is the central part of this study, but is it a Psalm about David or about God?

Lesson 2

This study is about what is necessary to keep the soul together. Sometimes, like Peter, we need an adjustment of heart or soul. Forgiveness is rooted in compassion, which releases the person and cancels the debt. But will forgiveness only encourage more sin?

---

Lesson 3

If we're to keep on for the Lord, we must avoid the pothole of an unforged character. One of the biggest temptations that we face in an everyday setting is the temptation to compromise. To avoid potholes of character, we must allow God to forge us at the heart level.

Lesson 4

Because Christ has forgiven us we can forgive others. There is extra effort involved in the Christian life because soldiering is not easy. But, with the sweat of effort comes the secret of enjoyment!
