It is always an exciting time at the end of an SBS (YWAM's School of Biblical Studies)! Each student turns in that final book and completes nine months of inductive study through the Bible. During those last few weeks there is so much to be done: packing, charting, celebrating with graduation events, not to mention tearful goodbyes. I've often wished I had the opportunity to sit down with each student and have a good long coffee and conversation. What will they be doing next? What are their feelings? Do they have questions?

When an SBS graduate is heading home, (maybe in the plane, the airport during a layover, or perhaps during their first few weeks settling back into their homes) I hope they will read this book. It is my way of having that cup of coffee together.

There are new roads ahead for the SBS graduate and they are going to be adventurous and exciting! My prayer is that this book will help graduates to navigate well, avoiding any potholes or dead ends.

So dear graduate, open up this little book and let's have coffee together before you start your journey!
