Top Ten Downloads of 2006
We've compiled a list of your favorites from this year.
by Holly Hess

2006 was a great year for the ChristianBibleStudies.com ministry.

Our hearts leap when we offer studies on topics like prayer, spiritual growth, and cultural impact, and we see that they were useful to many of you. Likewise, we rejoice when our guides for overcoming difficulties are popular, such as dealing with divorce, confronting teen sex, and improving marriage.

We had a lot of fun working on guides for The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, The Da Vinci Code, and The Nativity Story, and we hope they helped your small groups and churches share the truth of God's plan.

These are the top ten most popular downloads from 2006, for which we thank you and pray that we can continue to serve you well, and that these tools will help many others in their pursuit of spiritual growth:

I have intentionally omitted the studies on The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, The Da Vinci Code, and The Nativity Story from the list above. If I had included them, they'd take over the entire list! We all know these subjects are of deep interest, so be sure to check out the ChristianBibleStudies.com Hot Topics area that includes these subjects and many more!
