  Ephesians : Gods Big Plan For Christs New People (Student/Study Guide)

  $9.99

  “Why should I be a member of a local church? I’m a part of the body of Christ. Isn’t that enough?”

  An increasing number of people think of the Christian faith primarily in terms of themselves as individuals. Faith is not only a personal but also a private matter. For these believers, church has become an optional extra, a matter of convenience and personal choice.

  In his letter to the Ephesians, the apostle Paul says a firm “no” to this idea. The church of Christ far from being an optional extra; it is the display of God’s wisdom to the universe! The church is God’s handiwork, made up of people from every conceivable background, living under the gracious rule of Jesus himself. To be a part of the church is to be hand-selected by God through Christ to make visible the mystery of God’s electing love.

  In short, Christianity is far more corporate and public than we might first expect. We are redeemed as individuals, but we are placed in a family. And living out the Christian life requires we live together with others who love the same Lord. It requires we actively participate in the church, for the church is God’s only plan to raise us to full maturity in Jesus Christ.

  “Ephesians is one of the most beautiful books in the Bible,” Thabiti said. “The symmetry between rich theology and applied living can hardly be matched. So, if a Christian wants to think carefully about what he/she believes and then walk out their beliefs, Ephesians is an excellent book to study. I also love the book because of the honored place the book gives to the local church. If we would be healthy Christians, we would be wise to build our lives around the kind of church that emerges from the book of Ephesians.”

  The ten studies in this Good Book Guide will help groups and individuals discover the richness of God’s grace towards His people, and grow as the body of Christ.

  Biblical Womanhood (Student/Study Guide)

  $9.99

  Fully revised and updated edition with new study – Women and their children

  Everywhere women face choices – home or career, money or relationships, ‘secure’ marriage or ‘free’ singleness, using your looks to get on or ignoring your looks and getting ignored, competing with the boys or retreating into the sisterhood ghetto, the ‘progress’ of feminism or the ‘nostalgia’ of motherhood and apple-pie, women bishops or tea-ladies and baby-sitters?

  Our culture has plenty to say on all these issues. But a Christian woman, seeking to live for her Lord, will first of all want to find out God’s design, purposes and promises for women.

  And here’s the book to help. Sarah Collins (nee Young), in this set of nine Bible studies, aims to answer questions such as
  – What does the Bible say about the ‘big issues’ facing women today?
  – How should this affect my own life?
  – How can I be helped to live like this in a society with a very different agenda?
  – Some things will be controversial in our culture, even in some of our churches.

  This course doesn’t set out to be politically correct but faithful to Scripture.

  Suitable for groups or individuals, this guide covers all the major Bible teaching specific to women. Set within the big picture of God’s redemption of sinners through Jesus Christ, the heart-felt aim is that 21st century women will be enabled to live obediently and joyfully for Christ, as women after his own heart.

  Real Prayer : Connecting With Our Heavenly Father (Student/Study Guide)

  $9.99

  Confusion reigns over the topic of prayer. Yet, at one time or another just about everyone prays-but often it’s like shooting in the dark. Wonderfully, the Bible-and Jesus especially-shows us what real prayer is: talking to the real, living God with humble confidence.

  If we look at what the Christian message tells us about “connecting” with God, we’ll see how and why we can talk to God knowing that he will listen and respond. Forget formulas and techniques. This is about real communication with the real God-the unique Christian privilege of real prayer.
