Galatians : The Path To Freedom
$14.99Add to cartThe apostle Paul had more reason to be confident in his standing as a “Hebrew of Hebrews” than many of his day. As a Pharisee, he was a strict follower of Jewish Law–and a zealous persecutor of the church until the day he met Jesus face to face on the road to Damascus. Paul’s letter to the believers in Galatia contains this same form of zeal . . . but in reverse. He had learned the freedom and joy that comes from a relationship with God, and he urged his readers–and us today–to never trade that for man-made rules and practices. Paul tells us that we are justified by faith and can only find freedom in Christ alone.

Acts : The Birth Of The Church

Invited To Know God
$12.99Add to cart“Goodness like a fetter.”
The hymn “Come Thou Fount” reminds us that God’s laws were created to draw us closer to him. But reading the law is intimidating. Deuteronomy is a long and ancient book full of speeches and laws for a wandering people on the cusp of entering a land filled with hostile nations. What could Deuteronomy have to say for modern readers who face vastly different issues?
Invited to Know God shows that Deuteronomy is simply about knowing God. The book is a divine portal, drawing people into the ancient presence of God. To understand God better, we need to understand Deuteronomy better. Rather than being a dusty book of ancient laws, Deuteronomy calls those who love God to know Him better, choose the path to life, and flourish under His loving wisdom and guidance.
God’s laws bind our wandering hearts to him.

Insights On The Book Of Isaiah
$24.99Add to cartFor more than four decades, Alan Stringfellow’s Bible studies have brought greater insight into God’s Word to thousands of believers. Now, the author of Through the Bible in One Year and Great Characters of the Bible leads readers on a chapter-by-chapter study of the book of Isaiah. Stringfellow’s in-depth teaching will bring clarity and understanding to one of the most prophetic books in Scripture. With this study, readers will learn…
*How to identify the major themes
*All the major doctrines and truths of Isaiah
*The importance and relevance of prophecy
*Important context and background for the little-known Isaiah
*The role Isaiah plays in the coming of the MessiahBy embarking on this journey, believers will learn to better understand and appreciate the role of the prophet–to foretell the future, but also to speak truth to a lost and sinful generation. Stringfellow makes powerful connections between the wealth and plenty of Isaiah’s time and the abundance and decadence of our present world. The true value of this prophecy is that it occupies us with a person, and not merely with events–the Person of our Lord Jesus Christ, who comes to suffer and returns to reign. All of this is foretold by a great poetic genius whose gripping words and imagery could only have been inspired by the hand of God.

How Happiness Happens Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Add to cartIn this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), bestselling author Max Lucado looks at several “one another” statements in the Bible that reveal how the happiest people on earth aren’t those who have the most but those who are willing to give the most away. While everyone craves happiness, and everyone benefits from it, the sad reality is that fewer people today are finding it. We have more possessions than ever before, better access to education, and greater advancements in technology and medicine. Yet the majority of us can’t find an adequate reason to check the “yes” box on a happiness questionnaire.
Our culture tries to convince us there is one way to happiness: aspire, acquire, desire, retire. Happiness depends on what we hang in our closet, park in our garage, and deposit in our bank account. It’s a path that always fails to deliver. Instead, Jesus provides a better way: “It is better to give than receive” (Acts 22:35 nkjv). Intentional, altruistic acts of service are the most reliable sources of well-being. It is a principle Jesus lived out in his own life. While he was accused of much, he was never described as being grumpy or perpetually somber. Rather, he said, “I came to give life with joy and abundance” (John 10:10 vce).God wants to bring joy to the people of this generation, and in his Word, he has given us practical and applicable ways to quarry that joy by giving it away. In this study, group members will look at several key “one another” statements given in the New Testament and discover how to make happiness happen in their lives. They will discover that while the world can be a lonely and disappointing place, they can be God’s representatives to bring about a cascade of kindness. While we cannot solve every problem, we can bring a few smiles to a few faces. In this way, we might even initiate a quiet revolution of joy.
This study guide is designed for use with the How Happiness Happens Video Study (sold separately).
