A Phenomenal Life

By Edie Bakker

I would like to thank three men who helped hone this study into what it is; my husband, Rob Bakker; and neighbors, Bernal Thalman and Douglas De Ford.
We decided to have a Bible Study together, and I, having had the most experience with the Christian life, was to lead. Being a woman, and out of respect for the men, I decided to teach the lesson by sharing scriptures in both English and Spanish. These led to ardent discussions that often lasted two hours. I didn't hold anything back, so you will not find this published by a company with controls on what could be said. I shared from my heart, and from my 55 years as a Christian through all kinds of suffering, struggles, and experiences with many denominations.
The men didn't hold anything back either. They argued and openly challenged many of the scriptures, let alone my beliefs.
It must be said, that my beliefs and the scriptures are two very different things. I have included the references to the scriptures so you may read and interpret them yourselves. What I got out of them and my experiences are simply that. They are not to be taken as God's word, but as ideas that have brought me much joy and resolution
The lives of my two neighbors have been transformed through this study That is what has led me to record it. Perhaps it may transform the lives of others.
Please, as you read through this, have an open mind and seek the Holy Spirit yourself to guide you as you read the scriptures. Pray that you will hear the truth from Jesus himself. Do not follow me The church today has lost its flavor because it has relied on the teachings of pastors and leaders and forgotten that we each can have a direct connection with the Holy Spirit himself. Jesus Christ is our only Lord and Savior. No denomination, political entity, or spiritual leader can take the place of that May you be blessed as you read these verses, whatever you think of the rest of the content of the study
