A Christian life built on a solid foundation can grow to be strong and enduring.  Without a strong foundation a Christian can flounder for years without direction in their spiritual journey.  This set of lessons represents the foundational information I received as a young believer that has helped me run my race of faith with endurance and strength.  I hope these lessons are helpful to you as you desire to grow closer to Christ.
