Jesus Shaped Life Bible Study Guide Plus Streaming Video (Student/Study Guide)
$24.99Moving beyond facts to experience the fullness of God
Theology is a conversation about God. One that invites us to experience God in all His fullness rather than just memorizing facts about God. Theology is not some academic subject to only be pursued by professors and seminarians. Theology is the way we connect with our Redeemer. It’s how we remember that we’re His. And we will never have to be alone.
This seven-week Bible study by Lisa Harper, titled A Jesus-Shaped Life, is your invitation to explore the depths of God’s character, God’s love for you, and how your relationship with Him transforms you. Ultimately, you will experience how biblically sound theology deepens your relationship with God and each other.
This study guide includes:
*In-depth personal Bible study between sessions

God Of The Ordinary Bible Study Book With Video Access (Student/Study Guide)
$19.99The book of Ruth may be one of the loveliest short stories ever written, telling an unforgettable tale of purity, faithfulness, innocence, loyalty, duty, and love. Yet it is set in dark times. The final verse of the book of Judges, which precedes Ruth in the Bible, tells us that “in those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes” (Judges 21:25). The time was marked by apostate religion, lawlessness, invasions, and tribal war.
Against this backdrop of strife and chaos, Ruth is a story of ordinary people in Bethlehem making the most of their bad situation-and finding God in the midst of it.
Through this 6-session Bible study, Alistair Begg reminds us that no matter how dark or dramatic our days may seem, God still protects His people and accomplishes His purposes. Within life’s humdrum and routine events, we discover His loving hand at work.
God of the Ordinary Bible Study Book with Video Access includes printed content for six weeks of study, including group sessions with helpful discussion questions, personal study between group sessions, applicable Scripture, “How to Use This Study,” and tips for leading a group. Also, each book contains unique codes that enable you to access teaching videos for each session.

Spiritual Warfare And Deliverance
$66.65There is much more to our common struggles than meets the eye:
– navigate spiritual warfare with Christian maturity and wisdom
– covers both ordinary spiritual warfare, like personal temptation, and “extraordinary” encounters, such as demonic oppression, possession, and exorcisms
– from a pastor, missionary, and former military chaplain
Our modern Western world is deeply confused about what is good and what is evil. We know little about angels and demons, though the Scriptures we purport to believe have much to say about them. We blur the distinction between God and the devil. And we are paying for it. Denial of reality does not change reality.
Drawing from Scripture, history, and his own experiences as a missionary and a military chaplain, Harold Ristau helps Christians develop a biblical understanding of our spiritual vulnerability in both “ordinary” life, such as personal temptation, and “extraordinary” situations such as demonic oppression and possession. He takes us beyond theory, where many other resources stop, laying out practical tools to equip us for our own personal battles and steps to take to protect ourselves and others from the evil forces at work in our world. And he lays out an effective, proven process for mature ministers and clergy to follow when performing an exorcism.
There is much more to the struggles we face in life than meets the eye. If you want to be prepared for the battles that lie ahead, this book is your grounded, thorough, and hope-filled guide to ministering to the demonically oppressed or possessed.

Preaching In A Post Truth World
$17.99Words have power. The most admirable people are the ones that can make them do magic. But now we live in a time when words are thrown around like discarded plastic. But there is the Word. We can’t get away from the fact that God has chosen to communicate with us. Nothing has changed. That’s what makes our current time so difficult.
We live in a post-modern, post-religion, post-everything society. Our time is marked by a disdain for truth, let alone the truth of God’s Word. In a society that does not wish to listen to the truth, pastors are still tasked with reaching the world with the truth of the Gospel. And yet, how does one do that? In Preaching in a Post-Truth World, Mike Glenn, a pastor of one of the largest churches in America, with more than 30 years of pastoral experience, offers wisdom, guidance, and insight for the pastors that seek to recenter the pulpit and preach the truth of God’s Word.

More Than Enough Bible Study Book With Video Access (Student/Study Guide)
$21.99Have you ever felt a sense of lack? That you’re not strong enough? Not confident or courageous enough? That you simply don’t have what it takes to endure the pains and difficulties of life?? ?
In this 8-session, verse-by-verse study on 2?Corinthians, Christine Hoover guides you through one of Paul’s most personal letters to discover how God is the ultimate source of the strength and sufficiency you need. You’ll find that God gives you strength to go on-through troubles, disappointments, and temptations-and strength to go forth, equipping you to serve Him and compelling you to share the gospel. Weakness is not a disqualifier or a flaw in our design. In fact, God shows Himself most powerfully in and through our fragility and vulnerability. We’re called, then, not to work harder or to hide our weaknesses, but to call upon God’s infinite resources and rely on Him.
Features:?
*Verse-by-verse study of 2 Corinthians
*8 video teaching sessions, available via redemption code printed in Bible study book for individual streaming access
*7 weeks of personal study to be completed between the 8 group sessions?
Video Sessions:
*Session 1: Introduction to 2 Corinthians (33:11)-In the Session 1 video teaching, Christine shares a portion of her own story of suffering to set the stage for the study of 2 Corinthians. She also provides context for the letter by discussing characters, setting, and themes of one of Paul’s most personal letters.
*Session 2: More than Enough for Suffering (36:48)-Christine unpacks the theme of comfort in 2 Corinthians 1:1-11 in the second video teaching. She talks about how the God of all comfort, comforts us in all our trials and difficulties. Then points out that we are to enter into the suffering of others by comforting them with the same kind of comfort we have received. She closes the teaching by sharing practical ways we can comfort others.
*Session 3: More than Enough for Service (30:24)-Christine digs into passages from chapter two in the Session 3 video teaching to emphasize that we don’t minister and serve out of our own power and ability, but it is God who makes us competent to serve. She reminds us that we can be confident in ministry not only because God empowers us, but He also is the one responsible for the results.
*Session 4: More than Enough for Steadfastness (29:58)-In this video teaching, Christine focuses on a part of 2 Corinthians that she calls one of the most beautiful passages in the letter.

Bible With And Without Jesus Participant Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$17.99Scholars show how Jews and Christians read the same texts differently.
This participant guide introduces the main text and further Scripture commentary and reflection questions. It, along with the leader guide and DVD, is everything needed for an engaging study for your small group.
In this Bible study based on their book, The Bible With and Without Jesus, esteemed Bible scholars and teachers Amy-Jill Levine and Marc Zvi Brettler take readers on a guided tour of the most popular Hebrew Bible passages quoted in the New Testament to show what the texts meant in their original contexts and then how Jews and Christians, over time, understood those same texts. Passages include the creation of the world, the role of Adam and Eve, the Suffering Servant of Isaiah, the book of Jonah, and Psalm 22, whose words, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me,” Jesus quotes as he dies on the cross.
Comparing various interpretations – historical, literary, and theological – of each ancient text, Levine and Brettler offer deeper understandings of the original narratives and their many afterlives. They show how the text speaks to different generations under changed circumstances, illuminating the Bible’s ongoing significance. By understanding the depth and variety by which these passages have been, and can be, understood, The Bible With and Without Jesus does more than enhance our religious understandings; it helps us to see the Bible as a source of inspiration for any and all readers.

They Like Jesus But Not The Church
$19.99Many people today, especially among emerging generations, don’t resonate with the church and organized Christianity. Some are leaving the church and others were never part of the church in the first place. Sometimes it’s because of misperceptions about the church. Yet often they are still spiritually open and fascinated with Jesus. This is a ministry resource book exploring six of the most common objects and misunderstandings emerging generations have about the church and Christianity. The objections come from conversations and interviews the church has had with unchurched twenty and thirty-somethings at coffee houses. Each chapter raises the objection using a conversational approach, provides the biblical answers to that objection, gives examples of how churches are addressing this objection, and concludes with follow-through projection suggestions, discussion questions, and resource listings.

From the first moments of creation, when God’s Spirit hovered over the waters, a plan full of shalom–wholeness and harmony–was set into motion. Humanity once walked in communion with God, but when we deviated from His design, sin began to unravel the beauty. Yet God’s love and plan never wavered.
Through the Noahic, Abrahamic, Mosaic, and Davidic Covenants, we see God’s faithfulness and His desire to restore creation. These promises build toward fulfillment in Jesus Christ and invite us to weave our lives into God’s larger narrative.
This six-week Bible study by author and pastor Tara Beth Leach explores these sacred threads, helping you see God’s redemptive hand in your life. No matter where you are in the story, there’s a place for you in His plans for restoration and renewal.
This study guide includes:
*Individual access to six streaming video teachings from Tara Beth
*Engaging and evocative group discussion questions and activities
*In-depth personal Bible study between sessions

Multigenerational Church Crisis
$24.99Harness the strengths of every generation to create a church that endures
– open the lines of communication
– appreciate the experiences that shaped each generation in your church
– unite in one mission to impact your community and the worldIt may seem hard for younger Christians to believe that people over 50 were raised during an era when 90 percent of Americans identified as Christian. These older believers were once part of a majority group that understood the mission of the church was to take control of our culture to halt its evils. At the same time, Christians under 50 have lived their entire lives perceiving themselves as a minority that needs to make credible their faith to a secular, pluralistic culture.
These distinct experiences and perceptions have a profound impact on the priorities different generations have for church ministry. It’s no wonder that younger and older believers don’t always see eye to eye! But imagine what could be accomplished in the name of Christ if we could better understand each other and turn that understanding into shared purpose and aligned priorities?
Backed by thorough research, this eminently practical and hopeful book from pastor and scholar Bryan Chapell shows you how to open the lines of communication, appreciate the experiences that shaped each generation in your church, and unite in one mission to impact your community and the world.

Gospel Driven Church
$24.99Many evangelical churches face the problem of the open “back door”–even as new people arrive, older members are leaving, looking for something else. Combined with this problem is the discipleship deficit, the difficult truth that most evangelicals are not reaching the unchurched at the rates they think they are. In fact, many of the metrics that we often “count” in the church to highlight success really don’t tell us the full story of a church’s spiritual state. Things like attendance, decisions, dollars, and experiences can tell us something about a church, but not everything.
To cultivate a spiritually healthy church we need a shift in our metrics–a “grace-shift” that prioritizes the work of God in the lives of people over numbers and dollars. Are people growing in their esteem for Jesus? Is there a dogged devotion to the Bible as the ultimate authority for life? Is there a growing interest in theology and doctrine? A discernible spirit of repentance? And perhaps most importantly, is there evident love for God and for our neighbors in the congregation?
Leading a church culture to shift from numerical success to the metrics of grace can be costly, but leaders who have conviction, courage, and commitment can lead while avoiding some of the landmines that often destroy churches. Wilson includes diagnostic questions that will help leaders measure–and lead team transparency in measuring as a group–the relative spiritual health of their church, as well as a practical prescriptive plan for implementing this metric-measuring strategy without becoming legalistic.
Most attractional church models can lean heavily on making changes to the weekend worship gatherings. And while some of these changes can be good, thriving grace-focused churches are driven by a commitment to the gospel, allowing the gospel to inform and shape the worship service and the various ministries of the church.

Reason For Church
Original price was: $22.99.$18.99Current price is: $18.99.Rediscover the goodness and beauty of the Body of Christ.
The evangelical church is hemorrhaging. Over 40 million Americans have dechurched in the last 25 years alone, and multiple generations have been raised to believe the most spiritual thing they can do is follow God by following their heart – right out of the church. Yet, this shift is happening right as society is hitting record levels of loneliness, stress, and anxiety. In The Reason for Church, pastor Brad Edwards connects the dots of our current church crisis and provides compelling reasons to come back.
In part 1, Edwards shows how individualistic beliefs make church implausible and compromise our spiritual formation:
*Marketplace logic and consumeristic approaches to discipleship
*Intuitional spirituality and therapy speak
*Social media’s distortion of what is true, good, and beautiful
*Performative politics and culture wars
*Virtuous victimhood, the decline of trust, and the rise of powerThese chapters show why individualism won’t satisfy and can’t provide the refuge it promises.
In part 2, Edwards uses personal examples, church history, non-Western expressions of faith, and Scripture to show how the church is our existentially satisfying alternative to individualism. Equipped with an institutionally robust vision, we will rediscover the church as God’s spiritual greenhouse where soul-tired sojourners and lonely exiles are restored and repurposed for life in the world.
The Reason for Church offers an honest-yet-hopeful vision for church as a necessary institution. With radical individualism tearing us apart, we need compelling reasons to fall back in love with Christ’s bride, now more than ever.

Organizations have a responsibility to ensure that people who come there to work, worship, or volunteer won’t experience harm.

Jazz Of Preaching 20th Anniversary Edition (Anniversary)
$22.99Learn to preach from your soul!
What if preachers were as contagiously joyful in their preaching as Louis Armstrong was in his playing and singing? As rich in their sermonic renderings as Sarah Vaughn was in her virtuosic vocals? As honest about heartache as Billie Holiday every time she sang the blues? As alluringly clear as the voice of Ella Fitzgerald? As tenaciously uninhibited in the action of creating as Duke Ellington?
This may be too much ask, even of persons who are “called by God.” However, as Kirk Byron Jones demonstrates, preaching can be enhanced by an understanding of the inner dynamics of jazz. The forms, rules, and styles of jazz can inform one’s practice of preaching, and its simultaneous structure and spontaneity can help preachers better understand their own art.
In his classic text for students and practitioners, Jones explains how preaching is dramatically improved with the application of key elements of jazz, including innovation, improvisation, rhythm, call and response, honesty about heartache, and delight. This 20th Anniversary Edition includes a new element?preaching from your genuine soul. Chapters include instruction and exercises for applying the jazz elements to preaching preparation and performance. This edition also includes an Introduction, in which the author sets the context for the new material and articulates his conviction that this approach to preaching is needed now more than ever.
The Jazz of Preaching introduces the rich and rewarding possibilities that arise when preachers tap into their own creativity?and their own soul–when constructing and delivering the sermon.

Our digital age has conditioned us to expect immediate answers and crippled our ability to entertain mystery and experience the healing power of Jesus.

Live Free Bible Study Book With Video Access
$21.99We long for peace, to have lives marked by freedom from difficulty and pain. We look to countless places to fill this need-our possessions, relationships, intellect, spirituality, political affiliations, and so on. But, by relying on these things for freedom, we unintentionally make them our savior instead of Christ. This exchange leaves us enslaved to a false gospel and to the very things we hoped would set us free.
In this 8-session study on the book of Galatians, author and Bible teacher Elizabeth Woodson reveals that the struggle to fully embrace our freedom in Christ is not a new problem. Walking verse-by-verse through Paul’s letter, Elizabeth highlights how this letter teaches us that in the gospel alone do we gain what we desire-freedom from sin and freedom to experience true peace, living the abundant life Jesus offers.
Features:?
*7 weeks of personal study to be completed between 8 group sessions
*8 videos, approximately 30 minutes per session, available via redemption code printed in the Bible study book
*Leader helps to guide questions and discussions within small groups
*Charts, maps, and bonus content to enhance your experience

Preaching In A New Key
$28.00An Expository Preaching Guidebook for Post-Christian Communities
Preaching must connect with its hearers. As the perception of the pastor has changed in recent years, and as congregations battle with increasing doubt, preaching appealing solely to rationality doesn’t resonate in the same way as it once did. Post-Christian generations find themselves looking less for a charismatic authority figure and more for healthy leaders who are relationally connected to their neighborhood.
Scholar and pastor Mark Glanville provides a fresh look into the art of crafting sermons for post-Christian contexts. In Preaching in a New Key, he teaches the craft of Christ-centered expository preaching from the ground up. Writing for both new and experienced pastors, Glanville recognizes that it is time for us to reset our compasses.
Bringing together elements that are too often apart, Preaching in a New Key teaches expository preaching integrated with creativity, cultural discernment, pastoral health, justice, missiology, and more. Filled with helpful resources for seminary students and pastors alike, this book includes:
*Helpful visual aids to help prepare for writing a sermon
*Guides for how to structure a sermon
*Examples that show how to implement preaching practicesPreaching in a New Key offers a practical and refreshing vision for crafting sermons that are sustainable for the pastor and resonant with communities.

Heart Of The Preacher
$18.99“Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching.” –1 Timothy 4:16
*Understand the greatest threats to your preaching
*Identify common tests of your character
*Learn gospel-based habits that guard your heartPreachers cannot separate themselves from their preaching. Every time a preacher proclaims the word, something of themselves is also delivered to the congregation–for better or worse.
In The Heart of the Preacher, Rick Reed draws from over three decades of preaching experience to emphasize how preachers must prepare their hearts before they are ready to preach. Sermon preparation involves more than mere technical steps. Preachers are people. Exhaustion, discouragement, insecurity, and more threaten a preacher’s character, and thus their preaching. Reed equips pastors with practices and habits to face these threats. Preachers must guard their lives so that their teaching will be accompanied by the fruit of the Spirit.

Nobodys Perfect : Redefining Sin And Mistakes In Adolescent Christian Educa
$35.00Adolescents, like everyone else, make mistakes. However, religious educators Cynthia L. Cameron, Lakisha R. Lockhart-Rusch, and Emily A. Peck argue that some youths are born with the privilege of making mistakes in ways that others often are not. They also argue that many Christian education practices that guide our understandings of mistake-making are shaped by gender and gender identity, sexual orientation, and race in ways that disenfranchise some adolescents.
In response, Cameron, Lockhart-Rusch, and Peck curate a much-needed conversation that helps religious educators accompany adolescents and better understand mistakes based on a theological framework that names adolescents as fundamentally good. The result is an edited volume that explores ways educators can walk with adolescents so that youth can learn from their mistakes and grow without misunderstanding all mistakes as sin. Together, these essays seed a theology of adolescent goodness that’s rooted in a liberative Christian theological anthropology.
Drawing on both qualitative and quantitative research, Nobody’s Perfect offers nuanced and robust definitions of what a mistake is, apart from definitions of sin. The book also explores the challenges of talking about mistake-making and sin with adolescents within religious institutional contexts that shape policy, pastoral practice, and ministry orientations. Finally, the book presents youths’ own voices about how they understand and process what mistake-making looks like in the contexts in which they live and learn.
Nobody’s Perfect is for Christian educators who serve either in the academy or in congregational settings. The book well serves educators who recognize the various cultural and developmental challenges adolescents face when their church communities. The book also offers tools to help such church leaders attend to religious education spaces with a renewed theology that can root a more liberative experience of religious education.
