Job. Marriage. House. Kids. Comfortable income. Retire. But did God design people for far more than this?</p> <p>Yes, declares John Piper. Nevertheless, millions waste their lives on such trivial pursuits—all because they have not awakened to the simple, biblical reality that “to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” This individualized resource, in accord with the other components in the redesigned <I>Don't Waste Your Life Group Study Kit</I>, can assist churches, small groups, and teachers in reversing that empty trend.</p> <p>This full-length study guide is designed for use in a ten-session group study that explores each chapter of John Piper's best-selling book. It contains clearly defined objectives for each lesson, questions for reflection and discussion, a leader's guide and other supplemental resources, and blank pages for note-taking—all to stimulate life-changing discussion within a group and to convey Piper's passion to make our lives count for eternity.</p></DIV>
