Hidden Heroes : Transforming An Ordinary Life Into An Extraordinary Adventu
$31.23
Have you ever seen a real hero? Not the kind on television or in the movies, but the quiet kind of individual who changes lives without people even noticing. These hidden heroes dwell on the streets of compassion and on the bridges of hope. They live in the hearts of those who have love for the unlovely and a right word when everyone else is silent. Cities survive, communities continue, and families stay together because of these hidden heroes who rush in when everyone else runs out. Larry Thompson believes we all have a hero hidden inside of us.What can we learn from the hidden heroes of the Bible? What can we find out about the hero hidden inside of our own hearts? “We encounter heroes hidden in every area of life-business, community, sports. What makes someone a hero? What causes an individual to strive beyond the everyday expectations and excel? In this book, my friend Larry Thompson uncovers the secrets of Hidden Heroes from ages ago and then applies a very contemporary lesson for success in this new century.” -H.WAYNE HUIZENGA Entrepreneur and President, Huizenga Holdings, Inc. “Hidden Heroes makes me remember people that have been very important to me in my 33-year career as a head coach in the National Football League. These are people you can count on who want nothing back in return. They make as much of a contribution as those who are recognized as stars. It’s important that we find time to praise their legacy.” -DON F. SHULA Winningest Coach in the NFL (Head Coach,Miami Dolphins, 1970-1995)

Be Like Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$13.99In this eight-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), pastor and author Randy Frazee explains that our spiritual transformation involves not only thinking and acting like Jesus but also allowing those thoughts and behaviors to shape our attitudes. As we do this, we experience a new way of looking at the world and discover an inner strength that allows us to remain steadfast, secure, and solid in the face of any circumstance. We also discover a new desire to serve others . . . which, in turn, draws them to the love of Christ. We know we are becoming like Jesus when we possess these attributes:
*I have a deep love for God and for the other people in my life.
*I have inner contentment in spite of my circumstances and understand my purpose in life.
*I have freedom from anxiety because I am at peace with God, others, and myself.
*I have experienced the power, through Christ, to control my thoughts and behaviors.
*I have patience in the unavoidable pressures of life and am slow to anger.
*I have the desire to be kind and good in my relationships with others.
*I have established a good name with God and others based on my loyalty to those relationships.
*I have become thoughtful, considerate, and calm in my dealings with others.Grounded in carefully selected scripture, Be Like Jesus is a churchwide discipleship program that will take you on a journey to become more like Jesus in your behaviors. This revised study, adapted from Part 3 of the Believe churchwide study, includes an updated video study and new content and questions adapted from the existing Believe Study Guide and Think, Act, Be Like Jesus by Randy Frazee.
