War Room by Chris Fabry
Week 1: Introduction — Meeting the Jordans and Miss Clara
Read the opening chapters of War Room by Chris Fabry (through the introduction of Miss Clara and the Jordan family). Key Scripture: Ephesians 6:10-12 ("Put on the full armor of God…")
Before the battle begins, we need to know who we are fighting for — and who we are really fighting against. As you read these opening pages, notice what each character is protecting, and what they are hiding.
