Bible Women : All Their Words And Why They Matter: Expanded Second Edition
$25.00Add to cartIn a groundbreaking book, author Lindsay Hardin Freeman identifies every woman who speaks in the Bible, providing their words, context, and historical background.
Women of the Bible have been trapped in dry and dusty literary caskets for centuries–but no more. In a groundbreaking book, author Lindsay Hardin Freeman identifies every woman who speaks in the Bible, providing their words, context, and historical background. Through these women, God spoke, intervened, changed, illustrated, and proclaimed the story of redemption.
We learn which women speak the most (hint: it’s not Mary!) and which books of the Bible have the fewest words from women. We hear the only conversation in the Bible between a mother and daughter (and it’s not pretty), the words of a woman who eats her own child, and the triumphant exclamation of a woman telling the world about the risen Christ.
Step into God’s sacred circle of mothers, grandmothers, warriors, prophets, prostitutes, and murderers. You won’t come out the same.
Expanded second edition features new ways to use and study the words and wisdom, updated content for today’s context, and 93 prayers–one for each woman who speaks in the Bible.

AN INTERACTIVE BOOK
Includes Seven-Session Video Series
Unseen. Powerless. Hopeless. Many of us, despite being Christians, believe that these words describe who we really are. Laura Krokos reminds us that these words are not simply negative self-talk. They are lies Satan uses to keep us from living out the peace-filled, joy-filled life God wants for us.

*Realize that how we see God affects how we see ourselves.
*Learn how to use God’s Word as the sword of the Spirit.
*Feel grounded in God’s plan for us.
*Move beyond distractions and discouragements.
*Find confidence and peace even in difficult circumstances.Knowing God’s character transforms everything in life: attitudes and actions, fears and desires. You Are Unshaken is more than a call to know God more; it is a reminder of who we already are because of who God has always been.

Surpassing Value Of Knowing Christ
$20.00$16.97Add 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.

Who Jesus Is
$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

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.

Predicting Jesus : A 6-Week Study Of The Messianic Prophesies Of Isaiah
$14.99Add to cartPredicting Jesus is a six-week women’s Bible study from author and Bible teacher Kim Erickson on the book of Isaiah. It is a verse-by-verse study of Isaiah’s prophecies about Jesus and their fulfillment in the New Testament. It also includes contemporary application, weekly homework, reflection and prayer, and discussion questions for possible weekly small group interaction. Teaching on Isaiah is deeply personal to Kim as reading through it was transformative in the aftermath of her young son’s death: “Reading so many words that actually came true, some hundreds of years later, confirmed the character of God for me. Deep in my heart, I finally let go. I let go of the world’s effort to shame me into thinking it was all a sham. I let go of human logic. I let go of the paralysis of analysis. The focus of this study–Isaiah’s prophecies regarding Christ–reveal so much about God: His power, His nature, His plans. We can trust Him to do what He says He is going to do. I pray women use this book to challenge their current mindsets, check their understanding, and push forward in their faith in Jesus and the Bible.”

Create In Me A Heart Of Peace

Nehemiah For You
$17.99Add to cartThe book of Nehemiah chronicles a key moment in the history of God’s people: the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem after the return from exile.
