10 Lesson Bible Study
Additional Info
Moral decay, hedonistic lifestyle, political controversy. Characteristics from contemporary culture? For the Hebrew people exiled to Babylon in 539 BC, those words typified the lifestyle to shich they had become accustomed.
Imagine being away from your homeland so long that the strange landscape, foreign people, and pagan customs are now familiar and comfortable – and the land of your birth seems nothing more than a distant dream. God’s Word and you Jewish faith in Him have faded into memory.
This was the regrettable situation the Hebrew people found themselves in. And when the impossible happened – a decree allowing them to return to their homeland – God planted a holy desire in the hearts of many Jews to return. Additionally, He commissioned the scribe Ezra to lead the return and, more importantly, to teach his people to love God and His Word once again.
The 10-week Bible Study examines the fascinating return of the Jewish people to their homes – and their faith – as they take a fresh look at the God of the ages. Each lesson provides challenging insights into the cultural, historical, and biblical background of the Book Of Ezra. God’s master design for His people is revealed once again as He continues to address a world in desperate need of moral restoration.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
