  Benefit Of Doubt Workbook (Workbook)

  $19.99

  The strongest faith isn’t one without doubts. The strongest faith is a one that grows through doubts.

  “Am I the only one who has these doubts? What if my friends, family, or others find out I’m doubting–and even deconstructing–my faith in God? What is really true? Can we be sure about anything?” At some point, we’ve all had questions about Christianity and doubts about God. We’re afraid we might never find answers. Yet we’re not sure we’re ready for the undoing of our faith altogether.

  Bestselling author and pastor Craig Groeschel has walked through the valley of doubt himself. In The Benefit of Doubt Workbook, which accompanies the book of the same name, he reveals how asking questions, seeking answers, and wrestling with doubt can actually draw us closer to God. With his trademark humor, warmth, and lay-it-all-on-the-table attitude, Craig shares stories from his own life as well as the Bible to help us wrestle with–and find helpful answers to–questions fueling our doubt:

  *What should I do when I doubt God’s goodness?
  *Why doesn’t God answer my prayers?
  *Why would God only provide one way to heaven?
  *Why believe in Jesus when his followers are such hypocrites?
  *Why does God sometimes feel so far away?
  *Doesn’t science disprove the Bible?
  *How do I know if what I believe is actually biblical?

  Doubt is a normal part of faith, but that doesn’t make it any less intimidating to navigate. So if you’re wrestling with doubts, keep walking, keep knocking, keep asking, and keep seeking. As Craig writes, “I believe everyone–whether a long-term committed Christian or a long-term committed atheist–struggles with doubts. The doubts of a Christ-follower can take the shape of benign curiosity or a malignant tumor. It seems more Christians today are struggling and questioning or deconstructing their faith. I understand these doubts and want to help. It is my hope that this message moves you into a life after doubt and that you experience the fullness of all God has for you.”

  Lead Like It Matters Workbook (Workbook)

  $19.99

  It has been rightly said that Jesus is the hope of the world. While we can never argue against the importance of the power of the risen Son of God, it is also true that the local church is the hope of the world. After all, the church is the body of Christ. Jesus manifested himself through the church. And we, as the church, are chosen and called by God to be light in the darkness and give hope to the hopeless.

  For this reason, it is critical for the body of Christ–both pastors and laypeople alike–to learn how to lead like it matters. In this study guide, which accompanies the book of the same name, pastor and bestselling author Craig Groeschel shares what he has learned in more than twenty-six years of leading LifeChurch. The church began in a borrowed two-car garage, with ratty furnishings and faulty audiovisual equipment, but people were drawn there because they sensed a powerful, life-changing force that Craig calls it. While exactly what it is can be difficult to define, Craig reveals seven factors that contribute to it (or at least don’t kill it):

  Sessions include:

  1. Vision
  2. Divine Focus
  3. Unmistakable Camaraderie
  4. Innovative Minds
  5. Willingness to Fall Short
  6. Hearts Focused Outward
  7. Kingdom-Mindedness

  Craig also unpacks three important realms that every leader must master: (1) prioritizing mindset over model, (2) creating systems that empower it, and (3) finding a balanced way to lead to stay centered around it. While adopting these seven factors and realms will not guarantee a church will have that it factor, it will certainly lead that church toward it. It will help all of us lead like it matters.
