Learn How to Surrender Like Jesus Are you facing a problem in life that you just can't fix, no matter what you do? Perhaps you've heard the phrase "Let go and let God." But it's easier said than done. Is it possible that giving up on what you can't change is God's path to peace for your life? In this six-week Bible study of Jesus in the wilderness, Barb explores Jesus' time of testing and contrasts it with the Israelites' failures in the wilderness. As you learn from Jesus' example, you'll discover six principles that will equip you to let God lead you to victory despite your circumstances as you deal with the problems and pain you are facing: 1. Recognize You Can't Handle It 2. Stop Following Your Feelings 3. Give Up Control and Reach for God 4. Embrace God's Better Blessing 5. Let Go of Fear 6. Experience the Blessings of a Surrendered Life If you're tired of following your feelings or being disappointed by unchanging circumstances, learn how to surrender like Jesus and experience God's power and peace in your life as never before. Bible Study Features: A six-week study of Jesus in the wilderness. Helps women find the path of peace through genuine surrender, following the example of Jesus. Workbook includes five lessons for every week of study. DVD features dynamic, engaging teaching in six 20-minute segments. Other components for the Bible study, available separately, include a Leader Guide and DVD. Praise for Surrendered Surrendered is the antidote for women like me who struggle with the dreaded c-word, control. Through rich biblical teaching, vulnerable personal stories, and gentle (but insistent) beckoning, Barb Roose leads us to a new place of freedom through trust in God. Finally . . . we can learn to release our white-knuckled grip and rest. --Amy Carroll, Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker and writer, author of Breaking Up with Perfect and Exhale This study is full of transformative principles to free you from the grip of control. Whether you are tempted to flee difficult circumstances, fix outcomes, or force your way forward, Barb lays out a clear path to experience God's lasting peace, power, and provision as you live surrendered to Him. -- Katie M. Reid, author of Made Like Martha, Bible teacher, and host of The Martha + Mary Show podcast In this study, you'll be learning from a friend who is familiar with the painful parts of life and a guide who has traveled the hard road of surrender. She won't lead you astray; she'll lead you straight to the heart of God. --Tiffany Bluhm, speaker, podcaster, and author of She Dreams Barb's surrender principles free us from the need to control others and from anger or frustration over life's disappointing and hurtful circumstances. As a Bible study teacher, I highly recommend this study. -- Janet Holm McHenry, best-selling author of twenty-four books including Prayer- Walk and The Compete Guide to the Prayers of Jesus

Discover Your True Worth in Christ. What comes to mind when you hear the word masterpiece? Perhaps you think of a beautiful painting, a spectacular home renovation, or a captivating sunset. But few of us would describe ourselves with that word. We tend to listen instead to the lies that define us as rejected, unwanted, less than, ugly, stupid, or a failure. Sometimes we can feel more like worthless junk than a valuable masterpiece. Yet that is exactly what God's Word says that we are! In For His Glory, Marian Jordan Ellis leads us in an in-depth study of Ephesians to help us dismantle the lies we've believed about ourselves and replace them with a new identity built on God's Word. The truths in this beloved epistle speak to the core beliefs we carry about ourselves, revealing to us our part in God's magnificent design to redeem a people for Himself who reflect His glory to the world. Drawing on her own journey of transformation and her passion to equip women to overcome shame, insecurity, inferiority, and condemnation, Marian invites us on a journey to discover our true worth in Christ, our status as beloved children of God, and our glorious calling as His masterpiece. Other components for the Bible study, available separately, include a Leader Guide and DVD. Bible Study Features: A six-week, verse-by-verse study of Ephesians with seven group sessions. Helps women discover how Jesus can take their broken and make it beautiful. Workbook includes five lessons for every week of study. DVD features the dynamic Bible teaching of Marian Jordan Ellis in six 20-25 minute segments. Praise for For His Glory Marian Jordan Ellis skillfully explores the great truths from the letter to the Ephesians and invites women to discover their unshakeable identity in Christ. She challenges us to see ourselves as God does--loved, chosen, redeemed, and yes...worth dying for. For His Glory beckons you to rest in God's extravagant love and hear Him declare you "His masterpiece"! Lisa Mahan, Global Director of Women's Ministry, Second Baptist Church, Houston, Texas Marian expands our understanding of the timeless words of Paul to an ancient culture that struggled and wrestled so many issues that are our same struggles today. This study will challenge you, equip you, and leave you ready to live out your purpose with renewed passion, living fully for the glory of God. Julie Lyles Carr, Author of Raising an Original and Footnotes: Major Lessons from Minor Bible Characters, host of The Modern Motherhood Podcast

Preparing for Christ one Gospel at a time.

Everyone agrees that America is polarized, with ever-hardening positions held by people less and less willing to listen to one another. No one agrees on what to do about it. One solution that hasn't yet been tried, says Adam Hamilton, is for thinking persons of faith to model for the rest of the country a richer, more thoughtful conversation on the political, moral, and religious issues that divide us. The Leader Guide includes session plans, discussion questions, and multiple format options.
