Where Do I Go From Here?

What this book is

Congratulations on your new birth in Christ! Trusting Jesus as your Savior is the most important decision you will ever make. This short, straightforward guide answers the question every new believer asks: “By God’s grace I have been saved — now how do I live a new life in Christ?”

It seeks to reassure and give simple answers to questions like “Am I really saved?” — how to be sure, how to grow (spending time in God’s Word, in prayer, and in worship), telling someone you are saved, making disciples, finding a church family, getting baptized, and finding a mentor. Short enough to read in one sitting, with Scripture on every page.
