For The Love Of The Lord (Student/Study Guide)
$13.99
An in-depth look at what the Bible teaches about love and how that love should transform us.
The title For the Love of the Lord has a double meaning – it refers both to the love God has for us and the love we have for God. But what is love? How does it make us act? How does it change us? In this book, author Nancy Ferguson sets out to free readers from preconceived notions by finding out what the Bible says about love.
By acting out love toward others, we learn more about what it really is and what it can do. As we learn more about the love that God lavishes on us, we mature in the love of the Lord. As we mature in that love, we love God and others more and more. Thus, Nancy demonstrates, love is a circle that spirals upward until we reach our final destination, where we shall spend eternity basking in the glories of heaven in God’s presence. “My prayer,” writes Nancy, “is that as you read this book, you will learn more of God’s love and be drawn closer to the Source of the unlimited love lavished upon us daily, and that you will let that love transform your life into what God wants you to be.”
In this back-to-basics study, Nancy shares her passion for the Bible and God’s generous love.

Women Of The Bible Speak
$25.99The women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.
