Bible Women : All Their Words And Why They Matter: Expanded Second Edition (Expa
$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.

Praying The Names Of God For 52 Weeks
$19.99Add to cartBased on Praying the Names of God and Praying the Names of Jesus, two bestselling books by Ann Spangler, this unique Bible study is designed to help individuals explore the most prominent names God chooses for Himself and how each name can be used in focused, intentional prayer as God reveals His character and heart throughout the Bible.
Names in the ancient world did more than simply distinguish one person from another. They often conveyed the essential nature and character of a person. This is especially true when it comes to the names of God recorded in the Old Testament: El Shaddai, Elohim, Adonai, Abba, El Elyon, God Almighty, Mighty Creator, Lord, Father, God Most High, and more. In the New Testament, God is called Immanuel, Prince of Peace, Lamb of God, Bread of Life, Yeshua, and more. Through His names and titles, we come to understand more fully how God reveals His heart to us.
Praying the Names of God for 52 Weeks teaches you how to use one name each week of the year to pray to God in an intentional and focused way.
Each name or title is broken down into three sections each week:
*Monday: Study a portion of Scripture that reveals the name.
*Tuesday-Thursday: Understand and connect to the name through questions and reflections. Pray the name in Scripture and pray the name for yourself.
*Friday: Pray Scripture promises connected to the name. Optional Deeper Study.
Ultimately, you’ll gain a more intimate understanding of who God is and how He can be relied upon in every circumstance of your life, enabling you to echo the psalmist’s prayer: Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.

Meanwhile : Meeting God In The Wait – A Bible Study Of Joseph Of The Old Te
$19.99Add to cartYour Past Doesn’t Define You.
Your Present Doesn’t Define You.
But Who You Choose to Trust Does Define Your Future.We have all experienced a “meanwhile” in life when God is strategically laboring behind the scenes to work all things together for His good and for His glory. Sometimes a “meanwhile” can be an interminable and challenging “mean while.” Such is the story of Joseph – and it might be your life story as well!
Joseph was a victim: of circumstances, of family dysfunction, of slavery, of unfair accusations, and of sexual harassment. However, none of those undeserved conditions impacted the ability of Joseph to walk in his destiny.
You are the “Joseph” of your own story. There are relationships, abuse, and rejection that work against you but will never determine your God-ordained destiny. No matter what you are going through and regardless of how Satan has attacked your family, your productivity, or your freedom, you can trust that God is at work behind the scenes of your life. What the enemy meant for evil, your God will certainly use for good!

Many of us feel weighed down by our own failures, a sense of inferiority, guilt from the past, or emotionally exhausting circumstances. Yet when hope seems beyond us, the Bible offers encouragement from stories of those who have gone before.
In this six-session LifeGuide(R) Bible Study, J. I. Packer and Carolyn Nystrom explore how God works through imperfect characters such as Jonah, Martha, and Peter. God loves, redeems, and restores misfits, outsiders, and failures. And he can do the same for you. Through the goodness of the God of hope, you can discover the blessing of hope as a way of life.
For over three decades, LifeGuide Bible Studies have provided solid biblical content and raised thought-provoking questions–offering a one-of-a-kind Bible study experience for individuals and groups. This series has more than 145 titles on Old and New Testament books, character studies, and topical studies.

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.
Understanding this book doesn’t just mean knowing about a rebuilt wall. Nehemiah helps us think through any type of rebuilding we might do for God–from our homes and families to our local church, our communities and our world. It teaches us, ultimately, about Jesus and his mission.
A pastor with decades of experience in cities, Dr. Eric Mason unpacks this rich book verse by verse. He explains the context, gives plenty of application for our lives today, and shows us what it looks like to get involved in God’s work to build his kingdom.
This expository guide can be read as a book; used as a devotional; and utilized in teaching and preaching.

Shepherd King : The Life And Times Of King David In Israel
$16.99Add to cartThis Scripture Adventure is a journey through David’s life and his reign as king, a reign with its ups and downs, failures and successes. More than a list of historical facts, David’s life and legacy provide us with several life lessons, lessons that can serve to guide us daily, even moment by moment, whether we are serving only as “king” over ourselves or as leader over many. There are many “kingdoms” one can successfully rule or one can fail to rule. Which “kingdoms”? The “kingdoms” of “self” (with its many areas), as well as of home, church, school, a team, a neighborhood or community, a region, even a nation.
Here are some crucial facts when looking at David or any other leader: simply knowing his successes will not make us successful. Nor will knowing his failures keep us from failing, but we can learn. Here is an important truth: one does not have to fail personally; one can learn from others’ failures and one does not have to succeed in the same way as other “kings” or leaders. When all is said and done, the crucial questions are these: “Have I pleased the Lord?” “Have I followed Him and His Word?” “Have I helped others connect with Him to know and follow Him?” “Have I helped others through their life journey?” David certainly knew the Lord, sought to follow Him and sought to get others to follow Him and His Word. We can learn from David, from his stands and his stumbles, his successes, and failures. After all, it ever remains a matter of the heart-seeking God’s heart as well as learning from David’s heart for each of our hearts.

Journey : A Study Of Peter For Stumbling Toward Jesuss Extravagant Grace
$16.99Add to cartDiscover how Peter’s broken pursuit of Jesus can offer us hope and courage
Peter was an ordinary man of his time. He started as a humble, hardworking fisherman. But he ended his life with a lasting legacy that still inspires Christians worldwide today. His path from one to the other wasn’t smooth or straight. And there is enormous hope in understanding his rocky, stumbling journey of following Jesus.
In this eight-week Bible study, Jodie Niznik delves into the ways Peter’s missteps and failures reveal God’s grace. When Jesus met Peter in those broken places and called him to get back up, dust himself off, and keep following, we are, in turn, taught how to follow Jesus in our own lives. Along the way, Niznik emphasizes mindfulness practices to readers, inviting them to come to each week’s study with a quiet mind and ready heart.
There is no wallowing in mistakes here, however. Instead, drawing on all four gospels and other supporting Scriptures, Jodie invites readers to see the grace, mercy, and correction of Jesus in the life of Peter, and then to draw parallels to modern Christian lives. Each chapter begins with a spiritual practice that ties into the week’s theme to help women engage their heart in the study.
Though Peter lived two thousand years ago, he is proof that if God can use an imperfect life like his, then God can and will use Christians today, despite all those ways they feel themselves failing, coming up short, and falling away.

Exodus : Stop Walking In Circles
$19.99Add to cartWe all carry habits and hang-ups that can sometimes stop us from getting that promotion, hurt our relationships with those closest to us, or stunt our growth toward deeper levels of intimacy. You know who God is calling you to be, but sometimes wonder how you’re ever going to get there. This journey through Exodus is designed to give you tools to help you break those bad habits and move you into your promised land: that place God is calling you to.
We will dive deep into Exodus 12-18, the journey out, and unearth what kept the children of Israel from reaching their dreams. After 400 years of captivity, they walked in circles for 40 years and only a few actually made it into the land flowing with milk and honey. What did they do that stopped them? Why were they unable to make it? God had so much to offer them and yet they could not break out of the same old habits, the slave mentalities, that halted their destiny.
God has a plan for your life and wants to see you reach it just like he wanted the children of Israel to reach Canaan. Similarly, we must break some habits in order to sustain the calling and develop the character along the way. So, stop walking in circles, girl, and let’s reach those promises!
Women will walk away with tools and tips to break the habits that are stopping them from moving into more. By diving into the way Egyptian culture influenced the children of Israel, we can draw parallels to today’s modern culture and how that may be influencing our thinking and way of life. Using hermeneutical interpretation, we will help readers to better grasp the way generational inheritance can impact “ways of life” that have just seemed normal for far too long. From personal experience, Rebecca will draw on neurology and the brain and how just because it’s always been, does not mean it is God’s way, and the children of Israel are a great example of that.
Women will learn more about one of the most important parts of God’s story-the exodus of His children out of captivity with the world ahead of them. What stopped them? It will leave readers leaning in, asking what is stopping me?

Theology Of Mark
$17.99Add to cartSincere Christians hold divergent ideas about discipleship. Different approaches focus on steps to follow, mentoring, spiritual disciplines, or an intellectual approach, but do they draw their defi nitions from Scripture’s big picture? Do they draw enough attention to Jesus’ view of discipleship?
By exploring Jesus’ approach to discipleship, Bayer shows how God-perception and self-perception, simultaneously shaped by the gospel, result in reconciled relationships and radical discipleship.
The Explorations in Biblical Theology series addresses the need for quality literature that attracts believing readers to good theology and builds them up in their faith. Each title in the series combines solid content with accessibility and readability-a valuable addition to the library of any college student, thoughtful lay reader, seminarian, or pastor.

Life Principles From Unforgotten Women Of The Bible
$16.99Add to cartA quick glance at Scripture reveals the same familiar stories we’ve heard before. But when we slow down and take the time to look, other stories start to stand out to us-stories of women who played a role in God’s great story of salvation. Not all of them are named. Some of them are only mentioned in a line or a phrase, but they were significant enough for their stories to be recorded in the Book of Life. By studying them, we can learn for ourselves what it means to live a legacy of faith-what it looks like to live a life that is worthy of being remembered.
Over six weeks, we’re going to study the stories of six of these lesser-known women of the Bible. None of them had much time in the spotlight. They are the supporting cast-the roles that get listed way down in the credits right before the makeup artists and the lighting crew. Yet they are woven into the tapestry of faith, and we should consider their stories significant because God says they are significant to him.
Consider:
*The five daughters of Zelophehad, who courageously claimed their inheritance.
*Huldah, who valued God’s Word and helped usher in revival.
*Abigail, whose words averted disaster and helped call King David into his destiny.
*The Widow of Zarephath, who wasn’t searching for God but discovered God was searching for her.
*Leah, the unloved sister who found acceptance in God’s presence and purpose
*Gomer, who discovered the power of God’s redeeming love.They aren’t the women of the Bible whose names always make the Sunday School list, but their lives mattered. Their stories matter. So does yours.
