$24.99Learn spiritual growth practices for your daily life that remove your own anxious striving and center you on the One who was never worried about a thing.
People describe Jesus in a lot of different ways, but have you ever thought of Him as relaxed? This doesn’t mean that Jesus didn’t grieve or become angry, but the Gospels portray Him as never in a hurry to be anywhere other than where He was, trusting and obeying His Father.
Could the same be said of you? Are you relaxed? You can be. We long to know peace, purpose, and contentment, but life’s stresses, the world’s discouragements, and our own striving for growth often get in the way.

*Individual access to seven streaming video teachings from Megan

Christmas Letters : Celebrating Advent With Those Who Told The Story First
$17.99Hear from “those who told the story first.”
You may or may not know the story of your birth. If you do, there is something special about hearing your origin story again and remembering how it all began for you. That’s why we observe Advent: to celebrate how it all began for us. In The Christmas Letters, Magrey deVega invites you to hear about the miracle of Christ’s birth from those who first told the story. The letters in the New Testament, known as the Epistles, contain the first attempts by the church to understand and celebrate the mystery of the Incarnation. They point us to the origins of what we believe about Jesus, fully human and fully divine. By spending time with these holy, ancient words this Advent, you’ll come to know the meaning of Christ’s coming like never before.
Read the New Testament letters, Romans, 1 John, Philippians, and Colossians as your first Christmas letters of the season and find within them an invitation from God to deepen your understanding of the Incarnation and embrace a fuller commitment to Jesus Christ.

What Happens Next Bible Study Guide Plus Streaming Video (Student/Study Guide)
$21.99What comes to mind when you think about the end times? If you are like many Christians, you might not think about it much at all. You have a carpe diem kind of faith that focuses on the here and now. Why occupy your thoughts with the “not yet” when you have enough to deal with in the “right now”? The answer is simple: because Jesus focused on the end times. A full thirty percent of his teachings in the Gospels have to do with discourses on heaven, hell, and the events that will signal the final age. So, if Jesus made the end times a priority, it only makes sense that his followers would make it a priority as well.
Perhaps one of the reasons why you don’t like to think about the end times is because you know it will involve turmoil and strife. Indeed, Jesus said the final days would be marked by events that include economic turmoil, political conflicts, ethnic tensions, persecution of Christians, famines, wars and rumors of wars, diseases, false prophets, waning faith in Jesus, and other fearful sights. Jesus declared, “All these are the beginning of birth pains” (Matthew 24:9). Labor pains increase in frequency and intensity as the delivery draws near. Jesus was speaking of a day in which the same will happen in the world.
Now, when it comes to considering these events that will signal the end of the age, you have a choice as to how you will respond. You can see these circumstances through the eyes of fear or faith. The eyes of fear see little reason for hope and ample reason for anxiety. However, the eyes of faith see history inching closer and closer to a new era that will usher in a heavenly destiny–a time when you will “reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize” (Philippians 3:14 nlt). God has told you what to expect not to scare you but to prepare you. He is like a pilot on the intercom telling the passengers about impending turbulence. A good pilot keeps his travelers informed. Your good Father does the same!
God wants you to have a deep-seated confidence that he is firmly on his throne and the future is in his hands. He has given prophecy to empower his saints with the reassurance that whatever happens in this life, he is ultimately sovereign.

Jesus Over Everything Bible Study Guide Plus Streaming Video
$22.99Jesus Over Everything is a study guide experience with a simple truth that will change everything about your day-to-day: Your life will be less complicated if you put Jesus first. Period.
Every reference in the Bible to a healthy spiritual life is dependent on putting God first. But there are a lot of things that can get in the way of that ultimate priority–from over-working to over-thinking. Many times, our lives get complicated before we know it. Most of us don’t willfully choose this; we silently slide into it.
In this six-week study (streaming included), Lisa Whittle helps you and your women’s small group or Bible study build up defenses against damaging thought patterns and learn to reorder your priorities to consistently put Jesus back on top.
Jesus Over Everything is a close look at the Jesus-first life and the better things it offers. Filled with biblical examples and practical guidance, the journey ahead will unpack eight choice statements that will encourage new daily lifestyle decisions:
*Real over pretty
*Love over judgement
*Holiness over freedom
*Service over spotlight
*Steady over hype
*Wisdom over knowledge
*Honesty over hiding
*Commitment over moodIn the Gospels, when Jesus healed people, there was more going on than just the physical healing itself; there was a spiritual refocusing at work: with an acknowledgement of Christ and complete surrender to him comes a deep and lasting unburdening.
Packed with practical application and tools to equip and motivate you, the Jesus-over-everything journey will help you reprioritize your faith first in order to reprioritize your daily life.
This study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience, including:
*The study guide itself–with discussion and reflection questions, Scripture reading, video notes, and a leader’s guide.
*An individual access code to stream all six video sessions online (you don’t need to buy a DVD!).
