Publisher Marketing: Welcome to Introduction to Life Planning: Achieving the Call. This workbook is the third of a series of three workbooks designed for Christians seeking to go deeper and high school students who want to learn more about what the Bible has to say about discipleship, Christian leadership, and living a meaningful and impacting life. The workbooks focus on three aspects of maturing as a Christian leader: Introduction to Discipleship: Responding to the Call - CHARACTER Introduction to Leadership: Growing in the Call - COMPETENCIES Introduction to Life Planning: Achieving the Call - CALLING Each of these workbooks is a stand-alone study but they are also designed to complement each other. In this workbook, you will discover how God has wired you for a relationship with him and a life purpose that flows out of this relationship. You will have an opportunity to explore and discover your gift mix, core values, purpose, and mission. You will also work through practical exercise to help you identify a life plan to get to where God wants you to go. Introduction to Life Planning: Achieving the Call is formatted using the IDEA approach of discovery learning for life transformation. Each chapter begins with an Introduction (I), followed by Discovery (D), Explanation (E), and Application (A) sections. The goal of the IDEA approach is to facilitate the "gracious work" of God through his Word and Spirit to help transform you "into his likeness with ever increasing glory..." (II Corinthians 3: 18, NIV) so that you can live a life of purpose and meaning that matters for Christ and his kingdom.
