Shadows Darkness And Dawn (Student/Study Guide)
$16.99
Pastor and Christian Century blogger Thomas Steagald takes readers through the ministry of Jesus with a special emphasis on images of light and darkness. Readers will move with Jesus from the gathering of shadows during the temptation in the wilderness into the terrifying darkness at Calvary and the hope of dawn on Easter morning. Six carefully chosen Gospel stories help readers examine their own shadows, their confessions whispered in the darkness, and the power of Christ’s regenerating love to bring freedom from sin and the fear of darkness.
Readers will stand with the woman at the well in the intense glare that reveals her alienation or they will scurry under cover of darkness with Nicodemus as he seeks answers from Jesus. Readers will become more than mere observers. They become participants in the story, understanding their own alienation, their own desire to be born anew. Ideal for small-group study or as a guide to individual contemplation, each of the six chapters offers an invitation to prayer and opportunity for reflection and self-examination. In this practice, readers are moved to notice the changing light in the seasons of the earth and the seasons of life, and to participate in the bringing of light to places of war, poverty, and despair in the world.

Love Stories Of The Bible Speak
$30.00Biblical Studies
Additional Info
The Bible is full of “love” stories. But the Biblical idea of love is so much bigger than we imagine.Love is at the heart of the Bible. From the moment Adam declared Eve “flesh of my flesh”…to the sacrificial love of Joseph for Mary…to the deep friendship of David and Jonathan…to the abounding and never-changing love of God: The Bible is a love story. But it also redefines the way the world tells us we should think about love.
The Bible reveals not just butterflies and broken hearts. In Scripture, we see God’s beautiful design for the partnership of marriage. We witness friendships that cross all boundaries. We watch as families navigate the many seasons of life. Our guiding example for them all is the deepest, most abiding, foundational love ever known: God’s unconditional love for His people.
In The Love Stories of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream draws lessons from the good, the bad, and the ugly of Biblical romances, friendships, and families. She shows how God’s love is often very different from ours, turning upside down our assumptions about life, relationships, and each other.
The Love Stories of the Bible Speak reminds us that, no matter where we find ourselves, God’s unwavering love will sustain and guide us. These insights into biblical relationships will uplift and encourage you, and reveal new dimensions to the most central Christian duty: to love God and your neighbor.
