$16.99Add to cartDiscover the storyline of Scripture as you follow people, places, or things in the Bible. Maybe you are practiced in dissecting a passage and pulling things out of the text to apply to your life. But now you may feel as though your faith is fragmented. The Storyline Bible Studies help you put the pieces back together. You’ll discover cohesive, thematic storylines with literary elements and appreciate the Bible as the literary masterpiece that it is.
In Saints, we will look at characters and themes that are cautionary tales for Christians and Christian leaders. None of us are above the actions described in the Bible, and all of us are in need of the redemption and restoration of God. In the Saints Bible study, we will explore:
*John 3, 7, and 19: Nicodemus, the Pharisee disoriented by Jesus’ testimony;
*John 6, 12, 13, and 18: Judas, the disciple who sold Jesus out;
*John 11 and 18 and

Rest For Your Soul
$19.99Add to cartRest for Your Soul is for every woman who lives with an unsettled soul. She feels her circumstances and/or emotions have taken her soul hostage and have led her into the deepest of unsettledness, maybe even despair and grief. It’s Wendy’s heart to encourage and equip this woman to seek God, hear God, find God, and connect with God in the middle of any dark place and then slowly shift her perspective. She wants to provide you with the opportunity and ability to take your eyes off of your circumstances and unsettledness and, instead, fix them on God and His Word.
Each of the six chapters contains some or all of the following: biblical and practical teaching, personal stories, practical application, prayer and opportunities to put into practice what she’s learning in the chapter. For example, memorizing Scripture, committing to times of silence with God, engaging in deeper Bible study with me through steps taught in the chapter, invitations to pray and write God’s Word.

1 And 2 Timothy Titus And Philemon
$16.99Add to cartLeading People into the Way of Jesus
You might not immediately think of yourself as a “leader,” but the apostle Paul likely would. When Paul uses the term leader in a church context he includes anyone who mentors or cares for people into the way of Jesus.
In this volume of the New Testament Everyday Bible Study series, Scot McKnight explores four letters written by Paul to three pastoral leaders–Timothy, Titus, and Philemon–and how they model wise advice for leaders in the churches of Ephesus, Crete, and Colossae.
Throughout the study of these four letters, McKnight reveals important elements of leadership for us today through Paul’s mentoring of these three leaders. The first three letters are commonly referred to as the Pastoral Epistles, as Paul pastors Timothy and Titus on how to lead churches in Ephesus and Crete, and in the fourth letter, Paul pastors Philemon to lead a house church through a challenge.
While these letters are specific to their contexts, they offer timeless wisdom for all sorts of church leaders, from parents and teachers to pastors and business leaders.
In the New Testament Everyday Bible Study Series, widely respected biblical scholar Scot McKnight combines interpretive insights with pastoral wisdom for all the books of the New Testament. Each volume provides:
*Original Meaning. Brief, precise expositions of the biblical text and offers a clear focus for the central message of each passage.
*Fresh Interpretation. Brings the passage alive with fresh images and what it means to follow King Jesus.
*Practical Application. Biblical connections and questions for reflection and application for each passage.

The Storyline Bible Studies help you put the pieces back together. You’ll discover cohesive, thematic storylines with literary elements and appreciate the Bible as the literary masterpiece that it is.
In Sinners, we will discover God’s tender compassion on anyone regardless of their social status, troubled past, or the labels placed upon them. And we are going to notice the counterintuitive ways “sinful” people respond to Jesus in righteous acts of faith. You’ll start to see a theme unfold: The people considered sinful often act with greater faith than the most religious people of Jesus’ day. In the Sinners Bible study, we will explore:
*Luke 7: the sinful woman who anointed Jesus with the perfume from her alabaster jar and whose faith saved her;
*Luke 7: the Roman centurion who advocated for his sick servant and whose faith saved the servant’s life;
*Matthew 9: the former tax collector and disciple named Matthew who had left his tollbooth to follow Jesus and whose faith confused the religious;
*Matthew 15: the Canaanite mom who begged Jesus to heal her demon-possessed daughter and whose faith led to her daughter’s healing; and
*John 4: the Samaritan woman at the well who was approached by Jesus and whose faith started revival in her town.

Women Of The New Testament
$11.99Add to cartLifeChange Bible studies train you in good Bible study practices as you enjoy a robust and engaging topical study. Learn the skill as you study the Word. Your study of the Scriptures will never be the same!
Women are everywhere in the New Testament. They follow and serve Jesus, seek Him for healing, and play creative and essential roles in the early church. For much of our history, however, their stories have been mediated and interpreted through a male-centric lens. This may mean that you will be surprised when you see what an active and courageous role women played in the days when Jesus and His apostles announced the arrival of the Kingdom of God and the role Jesus continues to invite all of His disciples into today.
In this LifeChange study guide, we will study how Jesus welcomes marginalized and culturally neglected people as disciples, publicly affirms their faith as examples for others, and empowers them to lead and use their gifts. Over the course of 8 sessions, we will learn about . . .
*Mary and Elizabeth
*The Samaritan Woman
*The Bleeding Woman
*The Canaanite Woman
*Martha
*Mary of Bethany
*Mary Magdalene
*The Women of RomansThe LifeChange studies are optimized for small group use. Every study is broken down into 8 9 sessions of about 45 minutes. Each session includes:

James : Tired Tested Torn And Full Of Faith
$19.99Add to cartIn this five-week study, we will walk verse by verse through the book of James to compare the teaching of James with the teaching Jesus did in the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5-7 and the instruction of Solomon that we find in Proverbs. Examining the themes of what an active, faith-filled life looks like from before Christ, during Jesus’ time on earth, and after Christ, we see how Scripture points us to honor God by not only hearing, but actively living a life of faith.
As we dig into the Word of God, readers will be encouraged to reclaim their faith every step of the way. Micah will give action steps to take each day to move from the place of pain, challenge, or passive living to a faith-filled life. Readers will gain a fresh perspective of what it means to live full of faith when they feel tired, tested, and torn.

Praying The Names Of God For 52 Weeks
$19.99Add to cartBased on Praying the Names of God and Praying the Names of Jesus, two bestselling books by Ann Spangler, this unique Bible study is designed to help individuals explore the most prominent names God chooses for Himself and how each name can be used in focused, intentional prayer as God reveals His character and heart throughout the Bible.
Names in the ancient world did more than simply distinguish one person from another. They often conveyed the essential nature and character of a person. This is especially true when it comes to the names of God recorded in the Old Testament: El Shaddai, Elohim, Adonai, Abba, El Elyon, God Almighty, Mighty Creator, Lord, Father, God Most High, and more. In the New Testament, God is called Immanuel, Prince of Peace, Lamb of God, Bread of Life, Yeshua, and more. Through His names and titles, we come to understand more fully how God reveals His heart to us.
Praying the Names of God for 52 Weeks teaches you how to use one name each week of the year to pray to God in an intentional and focused way.
Each name or title is broken down into three sections each week:
*Monday: Study a portion of Scripture that reveals the name.
*Tuesday-Thursday: Understand and connect to the name through questions and reflections. Pray the name in Scripture and pray the name for yourself.
*Friday: Pray Scripture promises connected to the name. Optional Deeper Study.
Ultimately, you’ll gain a more intimate understanding of who God is and how He can be relied upon in every circumstance of your life, enabling you to echo the psalmist’s prayer: Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.

Leviticus And Deuteronomy

STEP INTO THE LIFE GOD HAS FOR YOU
The Israelites’ exodus from Egypt marked the end of a period of oppression in their history. It also marked the beginning of God fulfilling His covenantal promise to a man named Abraham, that his descendants would not only reside in the Promised Land but would also multiply and become a great nation. So, at various times, God gave the Israelites a body of legislation–known as the law–to instruct them on how to live properly as the people of God. By this, they were to be distinct from all other nations on the earth.
In the twelve studies within, John MacArthur explores these laws that God gave to His people as recorded in the books of Leviticus and Deuteronomy. As you work through this study, you will discover that obedience and the pursuit of personal holiness are always based on the character of God. Because of who He is, His people are to be holy.

Surpassing Value Of Knowing Christ
$20.00Add to cartA Living Proof Ministries Title
The apostle Paul was an extraordinary individual by any measure. From the moment he was introduced to Jesus by name in a blinding flash of light to his final days chained like an animal in a Roman dungeon, he relentlessly pursued Christ and preached the gospel entrusted to him. Paul’s fervor could not be starved, smothered, nor drowned. No slander nor accusation could sideline him. No beating with rods could silence the melody of his midnight song. The power of the Holy Spirit that first came gently to Europe in a riverside prayer-gathering soon burgeoned into an earthquake beneath a jailhouse, loosing the chains of every prisoner and dousing a jailer and his household in the waters of baptism.
What kind of mindset makes a person like Paul-unstoppable in love, faith, and good works even in a steady flow of frustration, conflict, and opposition? What keeps a person from becoming cynical when people are notoriously exploiting the gospel and preaching Christ out of selfish ambition? Paul’s brief letter to the saints in Philippi may well capture the mindset that set him apart like no other piece of correspondence from his pen. The book of Philippians is exhortation driven by unabashed affection, inviting the reader to join in imitating his joyful, single-minded pursuit of Jesus.
Come along with Beth and Melissa in this four-week, five-session study of Philippians. By the power of the same Holy Spirit who took the gospel to Europe by way of Philippi, discover what Paul magnificently called The Surpassing Value of Knowing Christ.

$11.99Add to cartWhen you ask people today who they think Jesus is, you will get a variety of answers. Some will reply that Jesus was the greatest teacher who ever lived. Others will say he was a wonderful moral example, a prophet, or even the Son of God. But when you ask these same people whether they have ever read the first-century accounts about Jesus’ life and ministry in the four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), many will admit that they have not read them. So their views of Jesus often reflect who they want him to be, not who he really is.
In this LifeChange topical Bible study we look at eight amazing “I Am” statements Jesus made about himself. Each one reveals that the Messiah and Savior is far greater and more powerful than anyone could have imagined. Jesus wants every Christian to know who he is and what he has done for us. This LifeChange topical Bible study helps you achieve that goal.
The LifeChange Topical studies are optimized for small group use. Every study is broken down into 8-9 sessions of about 45 minutes. Each session includes:
*Questions, interpretation, and application of a passage to the topic
*Personally focused “Your Response” question
*”For Further Study” section that gives readers another passage to explore around the topic
*Callouts that include language study, historical context, and illuminating quotes from commentaries -

This study helps you recognize these truths and how you can increasingly allow the holy spirit to work through you to bear good fruit in all walks of your life.
In this LifeChange topical Bible study you will look at each fruit of the Spirit one session at a time in the order that Paul presents them. Each session will focus on one key passage of scripture that fully describes the fruit being considered.

Isaiah : Discovering Assurance Through Prophecies About Your Mighty King
$15.99Add to cartMove from a focus on current circumstances to a trust in a future with King Jesus
It’s not breaking news that the world is in turmoil. Disease, economic issues, global and political unrest–it all combines, threatening to overwhelm us all with despair of ever achieving peace. In addition, many Christians have been told that they are responsible for bringing heaven to earth. They believe that if they can do enough good deeds, they will make life beautiful again.
Sue Edwards argues that this attitude is not only unrealistic, it causes many believers to lose the courage and stamina it takes to follow Christ. The answer to this dilemma–as to so many others–is found in scripture. Isaiah’s prophecies of the coming King are a reminder that it is only when Jesus returns and sets up his kingdom that the promise of true justice and peace on earth will be fulfilled.
Shifting focus to the exciting future and away from unrealistic, impossible expectations of the present frees believers to live with adventurous anticipation and emotional health. It’s good news for a generation of overwhelmed Christians!
With her trademark clarity and impeccable scholarship, Sue Edwards mines Isaiah for the prophecies that ignite a freeing confidence for readers in her latest addition to the popular Discover Together Bible Study series.
