Sophomore Stepping Into Maturity
$6.99
They’re no longer the new kid on campus. But they also don’t run the show. That’s the dilemma of the sophomore year of high school. Some teenagers view this as their year to waste, but it’s really a chance to be different, to find ways to step into maturity, to look for opportunities to help others, and to prepare for their elevation into the upper classes next year. Lars Rood is your students’ guide for this journey. He’s a pastor and a former teacher, so he’s talked with lots of sophomores who’ve wrestled with this unique season of the high school experience. What role do friends play in my life? How do I make decisions? Which people are in my crowd? Who are my role models? What life-shaping habits am I building? Each entry in this devotional will help teenagers walk through an important moment, issue, challenge, or opportunity that defines the sophomore year. Lars will also offer ideas on living out what teenagers believe. In other words, this isn’t just a book students read-it’s a book that leads to action.

Women Of The Bible Speak
$26.99The women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.
