"Lord, Only You can Change Me" (by Kay Arthur)
Ch. 2:  "Where True Happiness Begins"
 
Review week 1:  John the Baptist was chosen by God to "make ready a people prepared for the Lord" and in large part, this very "preparation" was the call to REPENT!  The "red carpet" of John's ministry was to declare the "BAD NEWS" of our sin, our deserving God's judgment, and the proclamation that the kingdom of God was at hand.  Bookmark chapter for week 1 (intro) was Luke 1 (and connecting back to Malachi ch. 3-4)
