Book Synopsis Grace Bible Study Participant's Guide by : Max Lucado
Download or read book Grace Bible Study Participant's Guide written by Max Lucado and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2012-09-10 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grace. We talk as though we understand the term. The bank gives us a grace period. The seedy politician falls from grace. Musicians speak of a grace note. We describe an actress as gracious, a dancer as graceful. We use the word for hospitals, baby girls, kings, and premeal prayers. We talk as though we know what grace means. But do we really understand it? Have we settled for wimpy grace? It politely occupies a phrase in a hymn, fits nicely on a church sign. Never causes trouble or demands a response. When asked, “Do you believe in grace?” who could say no? Max Lucado asks a deeper question: Have you been changed by grace? Shaped by grace? Strengthened by grace? Emboldened by grace? Softened by grace? Snatched by the nape of your neck and shaken to your senses by grace? God’s grace has a drenching about it. A wildness about it. A white-water, riptide, turn-you-upside-downness about it. Grace comes after you. It rewires you. From insecure to God secure. From regret riddled to better-because-of-it. From afraid to die to ready to fly. Grace is the voice that calls us to change and then gives us the power to pull it off. Let’s make certain grace gets you.

Download or read book What's So Amazing About Grace? Bible Study Participant's Guide, Updated Edition written by Philip Yancey and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of Christianity depends on how we master the art of understanding and giving grace. At the end of the twentieth century, Philip Yancey wrote his classic bestseller What's So Amazing About Grace? as a testament to the power of God's grace and as a rallying cry to the Christian church to see the acting out of grace as its single most important contribution to the world. Now, in this 6-session, video-based participant's guide (DVD/video streaming sold separately), Yancey reexamines—with fresh material and new stories—the scandalous power of grace so that groups and individuals can reflect upon, share, and extend this amazing gift of Christ in new and transformative ways. In this study, you'll discover: The extent of God's love and what it means for us. Why the church seems to have lost the gift of grace-giving and why the world apart from the church can't offer it at all. What it would look like for us to truly understand, receive, and give the gift that God gives so generously to us. Yancey offers compelling and true portraits of grace's life-changing power. He searches for its presence in his own life and in the church. He asks how Christians today can contend graciously with moral issues that threaten all they hold dear. And he challenges each of us to become living answers to a world that desperately wants to know, "what's so amazing about grace?"

When asked, “Do you believe in grace?” who could say no? Bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado helps us dive deeper into what it means to be changed by grace. God’s grace has a drenching about it. A wildness about it. A white-water, riptide, turn-you-upside-downness about it. Grace comes after you. It rewires you. In this book, you will learn: Grace is everything Jesus You belong to Jesus Jesus lives in you You will increasingly grow more like Jesus There is nothing you can do to get grace—grace gets you Grace is the voice that calls us to change and then gives us the power to pull it off. Have you been shaped, emboldened, and softened by grace? Let’s make certain grace gets you.

Download or read book Vanishing Grace written by Philip Yancey and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2014-10-21 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Why does the church stir up such negative feelings?” Philip Yancey has been asking this all his life as a journalist. His perennial question is more relevant now than ever: in a twenty-year span starting in the mid-nineties, research shows that favorable opinions of Christianity have plummeted drastically—and opinions of Evangelicals have taken even deeper dives. The end of the politics-oriented Evangelicalism that was so dominant in the second half of the 20th century is a strong example that we are living in a post-Christian culture. Yet while the opinions about Christianity are dropping, interest in spirituality is rising. Why the disconnect? Why are so many asking, “What’s so good about the “Good News?” Yancey’s writing has focused on the search for honest faith that makes a difference for a world in pain. In his landmark book What’s So Amazing about Grace he issued a call for Christians to be as grace-filled in their behavior as they are in declaring their beliefs. But people inside and outside the church are still thirsty for grace. What the church lacked in its heyday is now exactly what it needs to recover to thrive. Grace can bring together Christianity and our post-Christian culture, inviting outsiders as well as insiders to take a deep second look at why our faith matters and about what could reignite its appeal to future generations. How can Christians offer grace in a way that is compelling to a jaded society? And how can they make a difference in a world that cries out in need? Yancey aims this book at Christian readers, showing them how Christians have lost respect, influence, and reputation in a newly post-Christian culture. “Why do they hate us so much?” mystified Americans ask about the rest of the world. A similar question applies to evangelicals in America. Yancey explores what may have contributed to hostility toward Evangelicals, especially in their mixing of faith and politics instead of embracing more grace-filled ways of presenting the gospel. He offers illuminating stories of how faith can be expressed in ways that disarm even the most cynical critics. Then he explores what is Good News and what is worth preserving in a culture that thinks it has rejected Christian faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ** Resurrecting Grace is a potent treatment of the importance of giving Jesus His rightful place in our lives. It's great material for a small group to explore the great themes of God's redemption in the life of a believer. I enjoyed the clear and compelling voice it gives to those whose lives need to bring to center-stage the work of Jesus Christ at the Cross and His glorious resurrection. The material is thoroughly Biblical but also very practical. I believe it will bless any individual or group wanting to draw nearer to Jesus Christ. - Dr. Larry Vold, Senior Pastor, 3Crosses Church, Castro Valley, California** Resurrecting Grace is an inspiring and thought provoking Bible study series. Moreover, this series is full of nuggets of truth about God's grace and love for mankind. After each session I was left with wanting to know more and more about God's grace. I was moved by how Steve takes us on the journey with Christ after He is crucified to rising from the grave and to finally sitting down on the right hand of God the Father. This study was a refreshing reminder of how good God has been to us and that we should go out and to tell others. I highly recommend this study for everyone. - Vance Hunter, Pastor of Hospitality & Care Ministries, 3Crosses Church, Castro Valley, CaliforniaABOUT THE SERIESUnderstand God's grace that led Jesus to the cross in this fresh walk through the Easter story and the grace of Ephesians Chapter 2. You will enjoy this 5-session Bible study series developed for small groups and church communities. You will experience a deeper and richer Easter.Jesus was laid to rest in a tomb of honor, but it was not honor that brought Him there. The death of Jesus was not a death of honor, but one of mockery, deceit, divisiveness, lies, misunderstanding, pain... The list goes on. Sure, there were tears, there was devotion, but only from a few, and in the end, not even from His closest followers. But Jesus knew this would happen...ahead of time. It was all part of His grace-filled plan.This study illustrates the grace of God in the chronology of events that follow the crucifixion of Jesus: from His tomb, to His many appearances, to his exaltation to the right hand of the Father. Grace is demonstrated in each of 5 movements that occur after Jesus died on the cross. In this 5-session series, students will discover how these movements of grace illustrate God's design for the transformation of a heart that turns to Jesus, and how they spell G-R-A-C-E.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eight-session video-based bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), join pastor and bestselling Andy Stanley as he examines the characteristics Jesus used to define those who follow him and the implications they have for believers today. In Christian, you’ll learn: What one word should be descriptive of every Christian How Jesus’ followers should treat those who are outside the faith Why people love Jesus but can’t stand his followers What does is mean to be Christian? Curiously, the term is never used in Scripture. Instead, Christian was a label used by outsiders to define Jesus’ followers. Jesus referenced ‘disciple’ as the key word he used to describe his supporters along with the fact that they would be known for their love – a novel concept for their time – and ours today. Through eight engaging and enlightening sessions, Andy Stanley unpacks these qualities Jesus prescribes for his followers that made them unique. What if believers today embodied these traits? Would the non-believing world put aside its definition of ‘Christian’ and instead know us by our love? Sessions include: Brand Recognition Quitters Insiders, Outsiders Showing Up When Gracie Met Truthy Angry Birds Loopholes Working It Out Designed for use with the Christian Video Study 9780310693352 (sold separately).
