About this ebook

In this study guide that complements Mark Batterson's Gradually, Then Suddenly, the New York Times bestselling author of Win the Day helps readers discover and a life-changing truth about achievement: God is building you up steadily so you're ready for overnight success.

This comprehensive study guide explores the biblical patterns of how God works in seasons and stages. Through powerful case studies from Scripture and contemporary examples, Batterson illuminates how breakthrough moments are often preceded by extended periods of preparation and perseverance. Readers will learn to recognize and embrace both phases—the patient endurance of "gradually" and the exciting fulfillment of "suddenly."

This compelling, author-curated study guide includes:

  • Scripture readings that illuminate God's principles of persistence and breakthrough
  • Reflection questions that help readers identify areas where they need to develop staying power
  • "Cathedral thinking" exercises that foster long-term vision and perspective
  • Practical applications to transform daily choices into compound growth

Perfect for individual study or small group discussion, the Gradually, Then Suddenly Study Guide provides the tools to cultivate the grit and faithfulness needed to experience God's breakthrough moments.
