The Power of Obedience: Reading Scripture Through the Lens of Obedient Discipleship

This study isn’t just about knowing God’s Word; it’s about living it. We’ll dive deep into meticulous academic research, theological discernment, and the Holy Spirit’s guidance to understand how God’s Word transforms daily life. Discover the original Hebrew and Greek meanings often lost in translation through extensive “Word Studies,” with an appendix to empower your own research. By examining historical and cultural contexts, you’ll gain a true understanding of God’s commands. Realize that desire-based obedience is the most powerful and pleasing path, fueling the tenacity needed to overcome obstacles and advance God’s Kingdom. This book sparks both individual reflection and group discussion, fostering a holistic faith that leads to profound behavioral change.

The Power of Hope: Reading Scripture Through the Lens of Hope

Engage with “The Power of Hope” to discover biblical hope as a sure confidence and absolute assurance of future good, anchored in God’s trustworthy character and promises—not fleeting wishes. This study illuminates the three interwoven strands of hope: hearing God’s promise, recognizing the Promise Keeper’s appointed time, and patient, confident, expectant waiting. Through twenty-one individual “Word Studies” and practical guidance, readers will uncover the profound connection between faith and hope. Learn that overcoming often takes place in the “waiting season” and that proper waiting is a God-ordained spiritual battle strategy. This book will equip individuals and groups to cultivate courage and live faithfully amidst challenging circumstances, drawing on the early church’s model of steadfastness in the face of persecution.

My Dwelling Place: Reading Scripture Through the Lens of God’s Desire to Dwell Among Us

This study traces God’s consistent desire to “dwell among us” from creation to restoration. Examine the diverse forms of God’s presence, gaining practical insights into His requirements for intimate fellowship. Through “Word Studies” and an exploration of ancient Near Eastern backgrounds, understand concepts like God’s “glory” (kabod) and the significance of His dwelling place. A key component is understanding the church’s mission in building God’s Kingdom on earth and the inevitable “clash of kingdoms” that arises when living out this identity in a world often opposed to God. This book equips individuals and groups to practice God’s presence daily and boldly take up their mission, recognizing that suffering is an integral part of this divine plan.

The Power of My Spirit: Reading Scripture Through the Lens of The Holy Spirit

This study examines the Holy Spirit’s work throughout the Old and New Testaments, striking a “God-honoring balance” between neglecting and over-emphasizing His manifestations. Participants will engage in “Word Studies” of terms like ruah and Paraclete, understanding His invisible nature through concrete imagery like wind, fire, and water, and His function as an Advocate in spiritual warfare. The study illuminates the Holy Spirit as the creative power behind new creation life, indispensable for every Christ-follower’s growth and empowerment, and the source of Christian morality. It delves into the power-filled gifts of the Holy Spirit (charismata, dorea) given for the common good and the maturity of the church, bridging evangelical and charismatic traditions. This 12-lesson study, complete with an appendix on word study methods, encourages readers to embrace the Spirit’s leading in every life circumstance for personal and corporate transformation.
