Encounter God through the Scriptures as you are guided by the wisdom and experience of the Blackaby family.
The deepest need of every human heart is to encounter God.
To meet with God, to be changed by Him, and to become more
like
Him as a result. For decades, the Blackaby family has dedicated their ministry to helping believers address this deepest need. Now you can learn from their insights to experience deeper encounters with God as you develop a regular routine of Bible reading and study in the
