Power Of Love In Step With Jesus New Members Bible Study Guide 2
$8.09Add to cartIf we understood in a very real way that God loves us, how would we respond? Would we return His love? It’s a vital question. When a lawyer came to Jesus and asked Him which command is the greatest, Jesus answered that it is to love God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. He added that there is a second equal part: loving your neighbor as yourself. Everything Jesus commands of us, He supplies.As we learn that God loves us with no strings attached, we will return that love to Him. Within the security of God’s love, we are free to begin to understand who we are even with all our sins and failures and to change through the power of the Holy Spirit.The lessons for this quarter are based on the Great Command (Matt. 22:37-39). In Lesson 1, we look at the life that God designed us to live. In Lessons 2 through 4, we learn the source of love and how to love God. In Lessons 5 through 9, we uncover the hidden part of the Great Command (“as we love ourselves”), consider how we define ourselves, how God identifies us, and how we grow in the church and following the ways of Jesus. Lessons 10 through 13 explore the extent of the love that God expects of his people and how that love is expressed with different groups of people.

Adventures In Galilee
$18.89Add to cartBoys had all the fun! It just wasn’t fair! For Tabitha, life in Capernaum had been pretty much the same for as long as she could remember. Fetching the day’s water, cooking, sewing – boring and just plain dull – until Jesus arrived, that is! He was all that the girls at the village well could talk about. And hadn’t Tabitha seen Him perform miracles herself? She’d seen Him cast out a demon, and heal the paralyzed man let down through Zebedee’s roof. But who was this strange Jesus? Was he the Messiah? No one seemed to really know, even though the crowds flocking to see Him grew larger each day. One thing was certain. Life in Capernaum had changed for the better since Jesus came to town. But then Tabitha became deathly ill and died. What was it Jesus had said to her family? Not to worry, she was just sleeping? How could that be? The doctors had pronounced her dead. The mourners had been hired. The spices for her burial had been laid out. As her eyes fluttered open, Tabitha looked confused. Was that Jesus holding her hand? Why was everyone making such a fuss over her? What were they saying? She had been dead! Everybody had known that! But it didn’t matter now! Tabitha was alive again! Jesus was here – and wherever Jesus was, death could not stay! Tabitha thought about what it meant to leave everything for Jesus. She knew that when it came time to make her choice, she would be willing to follow Him anywhere – no matter what the cost! Will you?

We Can Trust The Bible
$18.89Add to cartDo you trust the Bible? You can if you know how God gave it to us. We Can Trust the Bible traces the story of how Moses received a table of stone on which God had written the Ten Commandments, the prophets had dreams and visions, and the Holy Spirit taught and inspired the disciples. It also shows how God preserved His Word through the darkness and persecution of the Middle Ages, and the struggle to give the Bible to the people in languages they could understand. Finally, we see how the Puritans brought the Bible to America and how archaeology proves the ancient records. But we don’t need carved rocks and broken pottery to prove that the Bible can be trusted. We can trust the Bible because it is filled with God’s promises from beginning to end and God keeps His promises!

Praying Like Crazy For Your Husband
$18.19Add to cartAs wives, we know our husbands better than anyone else does. God has given us front-row seats to our husbands’ hearts. We know their strengths and talents; we know their weaknesses and struggles. We know them more intimately than anyone else does. And we can pray for them in ways no one else can.Admittedly, it’s easy to pray for our husbands when everything is going right – when we are crazy in love. But what about when you’re so angry at him you could spit nails? When he’s hurt you so deeply all you can do is cry? Or when you’re so disappointed in him you wonder if marrying him was the right choice after all? How do you pray for him then?With unnerving insight, Tamyra Horst examines the reasons we sometimes do, and sometimes don’t pray for our husbands as we should. Prayer changes things. It affects the lives of our husbands. It changes them; it changes us.”We are a team. Husbands and wives. Heading toward a finish line together. It may be one of the biggest responsibilities we have in marriage. The responsibility and opportunity to stand beside our husbands and fight for them in prayer.” If your desire is to be the woman God wants you to be; if you long for a stronger more intimate marriage relationship, then start praying like crazy for your husband.

Case For The Investigative Judgment
$15.97Add to cartEllen White called Christ’s ministry in the heavenly sanctuary “the foundation of our faith” (Evangelism, page 221) and said if the people of God don’t understand the investigative judgment, “it will be impossible for them to exercise the faith which is essential at this time.” (Great Controversy, p 488).But critics of this doctrine say it can’t be supported from Scripture, and they claim that no one who believes it can have the assurance of salvation.Popular author Marvin Moore has examined the objections of the critics and the best thinking of dedicated Adventist scholars. In this book, he aims to help the readers understand this foundational doctrine and gain its spiritual benefits – based solely on the evidence from Scripture.
