Practice Resurrection Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Though bringing people to new birth in Christ through evangelism is essential, says Peterson, isn’t it obvious that growth in Christ is equally essential? Yet the American church does not treat Christian growth and character formation with equivalent urgency. We are generally uneasy with the quiet, obscure conditions in which growth takes place, and building maturity in Christ too often gets relegated to footnote status in the text of our lives.
In Practice Resurrection Peterson brings the voice of Scripture – especially Paul’s letter to the Ephesians – and the voice of the contemporary Christian congregation together to unpack what it means to fully grow up “to the stature of Christ.” Peterson’s robust discussion will move readers to restore transformed Christian character to the center of their lives.
This helpful study guide is designed to enable small groups in schools or churches – or even individuals – to delve deeper into the timely wisdom of Practice Resurrection: A Conversation on Growing Up in Christ. Peter Santucci here breaks up Peterson’s book into thirteen “sessions,” each of which contains a summary, select quotes to consider, questions for interaction, and a prayer drawn from the text of Ephesians that is covered in the corresponding book chapter.

1 In A Million
$16.99The Egyptians in Exodus 1 were intent on enslaving the Israelites, wearing them down so that God’s chosen people would become disillusioned and not live up to their destiny. Of the original two million Israelites who received God’s invitation to enter the Promised Land, only two actually entered it! Similarly, modern day Christians often hear and understand the promises of God each Sunday morning at church but then rarely choose to experience them in everyday life. In One in a Million, Bible teacher Priscilla Shirer invites us to change that pattern for good, living beyond our circumstances and expecting to see God move in miraculous ways day after day. Without a doubt, we can find and follow God’s purpose for our journey. We can make it to the Promised Land!

Hebrews : 13 Studies For Individuals And Groups
$13.99For many Jewish Christians of the first century, living in the light of the gospel was challenging. Having accepted Jesus as the long-awaited Messiah, they were regarded by still-skeptical family, friends and neighbors as dangerous, misguided and even disloyal to all that God had said earlier on. The letter to the Hebrews was written to show that you can’t go back to an earlier stage of God’s purposes but must press on eagerly to the one that is yet to come. In these studies by Tom Wright we find encouragement and assurance that pressing on, even in the face of such close and constant pressure to fall back, is its own reward.

Real Mothers : A Bible Study About Mothers For Mothers
$15.95Christian Small Publishers Book of the Year Award Winner!
Jealousy, adultery, out-of-wedlock pregnancy, and murder – the list reads like contemporary tabloid headlines. Not especially topics you’d expect to find threaded throughout the Bible. Yet eight mothers from the Bible, spanning thousands of generations, survived not only these problems but others more typical of everyday life. Real Mothers introduces you to biblical counterparts who struggled with imperfect family relationships, yet maintained balance and peace by trusting God when life didn’t always make sense. Real Mothers isn’t just an academic exercise to read and fill in the blank. Each chapter is structured into five sections organized by the word time, a precious commodity for busy moms. You will learn practical, biblical parenting skills that will equip you to become a better mother.

Elijah : A Man Of Heroism And Humility
$21.99Exploring the depths of Elijah’s fascinating life as a prophet of God in Great Lives: Elijah, Swindoll does not gloss over his human weaknesses; rather, he presents an honest picture of this ordinary man whom God transformed into His personal spokesman to confront idolatry and evil in the ancient world. Alone, Elijah faced off with over four hundred prophets of the false god Baal-and won. Yet, on another occasion, he became so terrified of a woman that he ran for his life. He was Elijah–the man in a whirlwind, the humble hero. In a world that has lost its way, due in part to the lack of balanced, godly leadership, we are more than ever in need of a few Elijah-like men and women who are not afraid to live courageously among their peers as they walk humbly with God.
