Study & Discussion
Scripture first. Stories for reflection.
Explore the biblical passages behind The Circuit Haven Series, consider faith under pressure, and practice loving our neighbors with conviction and compassion. Use these studies individually or with a group. You do not need to finish the novels to begin.
A note on perspective
These studies accompany novels written from a pre-Tribulation, premillennial Christian perspective. That framework shapes their portrayal of end-times events. Scripture is the authority for the study; the novels are fictional illustrations. Their dates are not predictions. Where Christians interpret a passage differently, examine the text carefully and distinguish its wording from conclusions about its meaning or sequence.
