Love isn't a feeling. It's an activity. It's something you do. And participating in the act of love is the secret to understanding God's love--the secret to a life well lived. Building on the foundation of the New York Times bestseller, Love Does, the Love Does video study (DVD/digital video sold separately) is a case study in love done--a love that's practical, functional, active. Not a "love" that has all the right answers. Not a "love" with ulterior motives. Not a "love" that's all talk or paralyzed by doubt. But a radically alive love that's an intentional participation in God's world. How is that kind of love done? The how is what this study is about. Real growth happens when you learn how to tap into the empowering, energizing love of God. Using it fills you. Risking it secures you. Giving it satisfies you. Each of the five sessions in the Love Does video study explores a different aspect of God's active love through Bob Goff's teachings and stories: I'm With You - we've been given the invitation to love. Taking it seriously is where life meets faith. Free to Fail - exploring the nature of failure, how it works, and what God does with it. Audacious Love - understanding why receiving love is essential to giving love. Be Not Afraid - chasing out the anxieties that keep us from acting and living the life that Jesus has called us to. Follow Me - delving into how to bring our passions and plans together and bind them to God's plan. This study guide provides teaching notes, discussion questions, Bible study, between-session activities and a practical application called "Putting Love into Action," which gives you the opportunity to put the principles you have learned into real-life practice. It's time to step off the ledge and fall into God's immeasurable love. Designed for use with the Love Does Video Study (9781400206292), sold separately.

The core idea of the book of Romans is that we are saved from sin by the grace of Christ. The apostle Paul unpacks the power of grace in a way that can completely change your life... In this six-session Bible study (DVD/video streaming not included)—the first of the 40 Days Through the Book series—Max Lucado welcomes you and your group into the knowledge and freedom of grace with his exploration of Paul's letter to the Roman church. Throughout the study, you'll explore the book of Romans with Max to gain a deeper understanding of its context and content, focusing on central truths such as: The extent and power of sin. The amazing reality and availability of God's grace. The battle we're still in, and the hope we have despite the lies of the enemy. The grand story—from creation to restoration—that we're all a part of. The call to live in fellowship with each other and with Christ. When we truly understand the power of grace, it sets us free from having to do good, so that we can do good. A true understanding of grace should not shackle us to works but liberate us to live in the presence of Christ. 40 Days Through the Book series: Each of the studies in this series, taught by a different pastor or Bible teacher on a specific book of the Bible, is designed to help you more actively engage with God's Word by understanding its background and culture and applying it in a fresh way to your life. Throughout each study, you'll be encouraged to read through the corresponding book in the New Testament at least once during the course of 40 days. Designed for use with the Romans: In the Grip of Grace Video Study available on DVD or streaming video, sold separately.

Pete Greig, the acclaimed author of Red Moon Rising, has written his most intensely personal and honest account yet in God on Mute, a book born out of his wife Samie's fight for her life and diagnosis of a debilitating brain tumor. Greig asks the timeless questions of what it means to suffer and to pray and to suffer through the silence because your prayers seem unanswered. This silence, Greig relates, is the hardest thing. The world collapses. Then all goes quiet. Words can't explain, don't fit, won't work. People avoid you and don't know what to say. So you turn to Him and you pray. You need Him more than ever before. But somehow . . . even God Himself seems on mute. In this heart-searching, honest, and deeply profound book, Pete Greig looks at the hard side of prayer, how to respond when there seem to be no answers, and how to cope with those who seek to interpret our experience for us. Here is a story of faith, hope, and love beyond all understanding.

As a result of his passion for helping people, Kit created and authored The Power of Peace Project, a program which is bringing reconciliation and peace to inmates, rival gang members and opposing factions inside some of the toughest maximum security prisons, and is now spreading to prisons and inner city schools across the nation. Kit also recently launched The Power of Peace Productions, Inc. and partnered with The Catalyst TV Network. Kit serves as an instructor with the Georgia Department of Corrections; a teacher for The Atlanta Mission; an advisor to Project KARMA, an organization devoted to youth gang intervention; as well as serving on the advisory board with HOPE worldwide Atlanta, an organization devoted to helping those in need... Kit spreads much needed, life-changing good news to the corporate world, the prisons, the schools and the streets. In this book, Kit takes you on another forty-day journey, and this time we will seek spiritual breakthrough together with seven new steps that lead us to look for God's answers on a daily basis. Many people pray. Many people even pray daily. And some pray daily and really cry out to God. Why then, are so many "church folks" so stressed, worried and fearful? Why are so many Christians filled with doubt and dread, when they are consistently praying to God? Kit believes that the answer lies in focus and attention--or lack thereof. He believes people are sincere and that they really want help. But he also believes that they have fallen into the trap of seeing things the same old way, after years of thinking the same old way, and they are now unable to see God's answers right in front of them. This new project is about opening our eyes and adjusting our lens, so that we can see our glorious God doing his powerful work every day.
