A LIFE FOR CHRIST
Christian Nonprofit Organization
Our Desire
The purpose of A Life for Christ is to develop and foster a community for Christ, including those who don’t yet have a community with other believers, as well as enable all to learn about God and grow in their relationship with Him. Through in-depth studies, study groups, blogposts (“Biblical Sense”), and other resources, we aim to encourage and embolden each other in our joint quest to understand how to live life in the way God has called and enabled us to.
​
​There is no charge to participate with us. However, there is a price to buy our books. If you are unable to purchase a book, let us know, and we will send you a copy free of charge.
​
We want everyone to have a chance to learn more about having a relationship with God.

She is also creating the cover art and design for our newest Bible study, Unshakeable Teens. Manal will play a key role in the publication and design of this book. We love having her on our A Life for Christ team!
