3:16 Bible Study Guide Plus Streaming Video, Updated Edition: The Numbers of Hope

3:16 Bible Study Guide Plus Streaming Video, Updated Edition: The Numbers of Hope

$19.99
More Info

*Entirely rewritten and re-filmed for a more focused and deeply personal study of the most-loved verse in the Bible--John 3:16.

In this updated classic Bible study (video streaming included), bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado pulls back the curtain on his favorite Bible passage to move you to a profound awareness of God's limitless love, His incalculable sacrifice, and the certainty of His offer of eternal life.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." This passage is a twenty-six-word parade of hope. A verse brief enough to write on a napkin or memorize in a moment...and solid enough to weather 2,000 years of storms and questions.

With deeply personal accounts of the way this verse shaped Max's own faith journey, this study will reveal the gospel story surrounding the promise and unpack God's plan of restoration from the human problems of sin and death. If you know nothing about the Bible, the promise of John 3:16 is where to start.

This video study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience, including:

  • The study guide itself--with discussion and reflection questions, video notes, and a leader's guide.
  • An individual access code to stream all five video sessions online (DVD also available separately).
  • It's time to live as if you've been "born again", as if you've already been redeemed. It's time to live into the promise, to trust it--so much that this message of God's unending love overflows from you to the world.

    Acts: Catching Up With the Spirit

    More Info
    The Acts of the Apostles is a unique and crucial book that chronicles the story of God's grace flooding out to the world through the lives of the apostles in the decades immediately following Christ's ascension into heaven. In Acts: Catching up with the Spirit, author and biblical scholar Matthew Skinner provides a broad yet theologically attuned introduction to this important book and its story of the early church learning to bear witness about God's salvation through Jesus Christ.. Skinner explores six key themes that illustrate the ways in which reading Acts is capable of igniting our imagination about the character of the Christian message, the work of God's people (the church), and the challenges of living faithfully in a complex and changing world. Additional components for a six-week study include a DVD featuring Matthew Skinner and a comprehensive Leader Guide. Endorsements for Acts: Catching Up with the Spirit Skinner calls us to a daring life, risking not so much mere stormy seas, snakebites, magicians, but real daring, risking following the Holy Spirit into deep (even sacrificial) care of our neighbor at both the personal and social systemic levels, transformative hospitality, expansive inclusion, and, in Skinner's words, "generous unity." --Jaime Clark-Soles, Professor of New Testament, Perkins School of Theology Matt Skinner's invitation is to notice how God has acted before in Acts so that we might together wonder anew where God is leading us today. On this necessary but difficult journey, Skinner is a consummate scholar, a vivid writer, a gifted theologian, and a loving guide. -- Eric D. Barreto, Weyerhaeuser Associate Professor of New Testament, Princeton Theological Seminary

Baby boomers have high expectations of retirement: they want to be redeployed to a life that is meaningful, significant, and full of joy.

    The book guides readers through a study and reflection process to discover their purpose, passion, and mission for retirement. It includes self-assessments and other planning tools to help readers develop a personal and spiritual mission statement. The book also facilitates discussions with family and friends about shared priorities, expectations, and end-of-life decisions, bringing a sense of peace for all involved. Finally, the book includes a chapter on financial planning, with a focus on the reader’s legacy, for an impact that will last through generations.

    Take a pilgrimage through some of the most challenging--and rewarding--parts of the Old Testament with bestselling author Philip Yancey.

    Because it is often daunting, many Christians approach Old Testament carefully. Or avoid it altogether. But each of the books of the Old Testament--"the Bible Jesus read"--contains an essential part of the story of grace.

    "The more we comprehend the Old Testament," Yancey writes, "the more we comprehend Jesus."

    In The Bible Jesus Read, Yancey challenges the perception that the New Testament is more important than the Old. Writing with keen insight into the human condition and God's provision for it, he sets off on a personal journey through the parts we most like to keep at arm's length--Job, Deuteronomy, Psalms, Ecclesiastes, and the Prophets--and he asks us to bring our own questions, concerns, and our openness to the wonders of God.

    We may discover that this set of writings that comprise the Old Testament is at once as mystifying and strangely satisfying as life itself--that it's worth the effort it takes to read and wrestle with. Because reading the Scriptures that Jesus so revered gives us a profound new understanding of Christ, the Cornerstone of the new covenant.

    Paul must often have felt like a mother duck guiding her ducklings to safety. He had seen the enthusiasm of the Colossian Christians but knew they had no idea of the dangers they would face. Longing for them to continue growing in faith, Paul--now stuck in prison--wrote to his young flock, affirming them, warning them of hazards and pointing them to King Jesus, the supreme one who was with them and at work in them. These eight studies on Colossians and Philemon will similarly guide us toward maturity in King Jesus, who is still at work in his people today. This guide by Tom Wright can be used on its own or alongside his New Testament for Everyone commentary on Colossians and Philemon. It is designed to help you understand Scripture in fresh ways under the guidance of one of the world's leading New Testament scholars. Thoughtful questions, prayer suggestions, and useful background and cultural information all guide you or a group more deeply into God's Word. Discover how you can participate more fully in God's kingdom.
