Share Jesus Without Fear
This revised edition of the popular evangelism resource presents a simple and relational approach to witnessing that underscores the dependence on God's power for the results. Birthed out of the life transformation of its author (former brothel-owner turned Christ-follower), this method teaches believers how to navigate a witnessing conversation in everyday situations. These are two different 6-week sessions.

What Does the Bible Say?
What does the Bible say? In this course, students will explore how different communities read (eg., interpret) the Bible differently, leading to different understandings of its messages. Focusing especially on readings of the Bible from Black communities and other marginalized groups, the course will examine how these readings (e.g., interpretations) reveal insights into God’s vision for love, justice, and liberation. Students will also reflect on their own reading of the Bible and will consider how the Bible can serve as a resource in the struggle for liberation.

Spiritual Disciplines
Hailed by many as the best modern book on Christian spirituality, Celebration of Discipline explores the "classic Disciplines," or central spiritual practices, of the Christian faith. Along the way, Foster shows that it is only by and through these practices that the true path to spiritual growth can be found.
Dividing the Disciplines into three movements of the Spirit, Foster shows how each of these areas contribute to a balanced spiritual life. The inward Disciplines of meditation, prayer, fasting, and study offer avenues of personal examination and change. The outward Disciplines of simplicity, solitude, submission, and service help prepare us to make the world a better place.

Men’s Bible Study - Manhood Restored
The earthly crisis within manhood will be there until Jesus returns, but in Christ men are pointed toward the gospel as the vision for renewal. Manhood Restored by exciting new pastoral voice Eric Mason combines theological depth with practical insights, putting men in step with a gospel-centered manhood that will enrich every facet of their lives.
Mason begins with The Scope of Manhood -- looking first at why God created man, at the divine differences between man and woman, and what should drive the purpose of a man during his time on earth.

How to Study the Bible: Bible Study Methods

Spiritual Warfare
Putting on the Armor is an excellent session study for new and growing believers seeking practical application of personal spiritual disciplines in order to defeat the enemy in times of temptation. This study does not offer “cures” for any temptation, but does lay out the path to victory for every believer. Author Chuck Lawless believes that Ephesians 6:10-20 gives us clear direction on how to fight the enemy and how to develop and demonstrate effective Christian living.
