Making Work Work (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Most of us spend most of our waking hours at work. It takes up most of our energy and often most of our emotions. It is at times really fulfilling, and at other times utterly frustrating. It keeps a roof over our heads and food on our tables… but is there any more to work than that?
Christians can feel that what they do Monday to Friday is irrelevant to their faith; or, worse, gets in the way of them living out their faith. Others who don t go to work in an office or factory can feel that they are of little worth.
Could work should work be anything more than something to go to, make money at, and return home from?
The Bible s answer is: Yes! Whether you go out to work, or are a parent whose work is at home… whether you re out of work, starting your first job, running a company, or retired… these eight studies will show you, excite you and challenge you with God s perspective on working in His world.Add to cartIn stock (additional units can be purchased)

Leader’s GuideAdditional Info
Even today, Jesus is still a figure of intense interest and admiration for millions. But then there’s His church. Church is a boring topic for most, and a reluctantly fulfilled duty for many.And we can understand why. Churches say they have the best news in the world, that they have the answer to our problems, that they are God’s embassies on earth; and yet churches are made up of people like you and me, who are grumpy, irritable, unfaithful, selfish, and worse.
And as that is sadly true of churches today, so it was of the church in Corinth. It was young, it was full of life, and it was just as full of problems. What would God say to such a challenging church? What did they need to be excited by, to listen to, to learn?
Use this seven-study guide to open up the first nine chapters of the letter of 1 Corinthians, to hear what God said to His church in Corinth, and what God still says to His church today.

What makes a real man?

Biblical Womanhood (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Fully revised and updated edition with new study – Women and their children
Everywhere women face choices – home or career, money or relationships, ‘secure’ marriage or ‘free’ singleness, using your looks to get on or ignoring your looks and getting ignored, competing with the boys or retreating into the sisterhood ghetto, the ‘progress’ of feminism or the ‘nostalgia’ of motherhood and apple-pie, women bishops or tea-ladies and baby-sitters?
Our culture has plenty to say on all these issues. But a Christian woman, seeking to live for her Lord, will first of all want to find out God’s design, purposes and promises for women.
And here’s the book to help. Sarah Collins (nee Young), in this set of nine Bible studies, aims to answer questions such as
– What does the Bible say about the ‘big issues’ facing women today?
– How should this affect my own life?
– How can I be helped to live like this in a society with a very different agenda?
– Some things will be controversial in our culture, even in some of our churches.This course doesn’t set out to be politically correct but faithful to Scripture.
Suitable for groups or individuals, this guide covers all the major Bible teaching specific to women. Set within the big picture of God’s redemption of sinners through Jesus Christ, the heart-felt aim is that 21st century women will be enabled to live obediently and joyfully for Christ, as women after his own heart.

Mark’s Gospel – The 20 Most-asked Questions
Copying Masters And Handout Sheets
Christianity Explained – In ContextAdditional Info
In many countries people growing up today do not have a Sunday School understanding of the gospel, or even the basic facts about Jesus. Christianity Explained gets away from the quick one-off presentation of the gospel which has characterised much of our evangelistic efforts in the past.Based on six studies from Mark’s gospel, this ‘manual’ is a tried-and-tested tool for evangelism. It presents the challenge of Jesus in a way that is non-threatening and concentrates on the facts concerning the person and work of Christ. It begins with the assumption that the hearer knows absolutely nothing about Jesus or the Good News.
During the course, participants will be invited to discuss and question what they are hearing and, by the end of the six ‘studies’, will be challenged to repentance, belief and a trust in Jesus.
The course, initially compiled by Scripture Union in Australia, has proved especially effective in 1-to-1 work.

1 Corinthians 10-16 (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99What can turn a struggling church around? What can help a church which has sold out to the culture; which is riven by division; which is dominated by me-first materialism; and which is uncertain about the gospel itself?
“Be on your guard”, wrote one church planter to just such a church. “Stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong.
“Do everything in love.”So wrote the apostle Paul to the Corinthian church (1 Corinthians 16
v 13-14). This was a congregation which seemed to have lost its way. But Paul did not give up on them. He encouraged them to love their church.And, in the second half of his first letter to them, he showed them how to do this-how to love each other as Christ had loved them.
This was the love that could turn the Corinthian church around. And this is the love that all our local churches need. These eight studies in 1 Corinthians 10 – 16 will enable, motivate and challenge you to “do everything in love”, individually and collectively.

Esther : Royal Rescue (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99There are times in our lives when we question whether God truly loves us, whether He is really in control of the world, whether He knows what He is doing, whether He even notices what is happening to us.
These are exactly the kind of questions that God’s people in Esther’s day must have been asking. Not only were they exiled from their home, the land that had been promised to them by God, but they were facing ethnic cleansing on an unprecedented scale.
The story of Esther reveals that whatever the appearances, God is in control. Although the enemies of God and His people are many and powerful, their plans are doomed. God’s plans are the ones that will triumph. He delights in answering His people’s prayers often in most unexpected ways.
As He delivered the Jews of Esther’s day from seemingly unstoppable destruction, so He has and will deliver all who turn to Him in Christ. He is to be trusted in all situations at all times.

Hosea : Gods Love Song (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Hosea is a love song, with a difference.
Love songs are everywhere. On the radio; on movie soundtracks; in the background as we shop and eat out. Theyre often stuck in our heads and hearts, too.
And yet their lyrics are full of desire leading to disappointment, and hope followed by heartbreak. Love songs reflect our yearning for a love that is solid and sure; and they expose our inability to find it.
The book of Hosea is a love song. But uniquely, its lyrics are about a love which will never fade; which will never disappoint; and which will never say: Enough. The singer throughout Hosea is God: and the love He talks about is His own love, lavished upon His people. Its a love song that is surprising, raw, emotional, at times uncomfortable, but always compelling.
These eight studies will thrill you with the wonder of Gods love, even as they challenge you with the truth about His people. And, as you read through Hosea, youll be provided with a soundtrack for your life which truly is worth singing along to.

Jonah : The Depths Of Grace (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99The story of Jonah and the whale is one of the most famous in the Bible: but its message is perhaps one of the most ignored. It’s a story about storms and sailors, rebellion, and rescue, preaching and protest. And it s a story about one reluctant evangelist’s experience of speaking to people who knew nothing about God. So its message has great relevance today for God’s people, living in an increasingly non-Christian culture. Jonah’s story will encourage believers who find themselves ill-equipped to share God s message with colleagues, friends and family: and it deeply challenges our priorities in life. But most of all this is a story about God. The book of Jonah reveals to us the depths of God’s grace, both to outsiders and to insiders. It shows us God’s compassion for the lost and His patience with His wayward people. Use this guide to uncover the wonderful message of Jonah, and to come face to face with the greatest evangelist of all the Lord our God Himself.

Promises Kept : The Whole Story Of The Bible (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99One Saturday, less than a decade after the end of Jesus of Nazareth s life, a man named Paul stood up in a Jewish synagogue with a mind-blowing message.
We tell you the good news, he said. What God promised our fathers, he has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus (Acts 13 v 33-34). In many ways, in these two sentences Paul was summing up the story of the whole of the Bible.
God is a promise-making God. Throughout history, He has made huge, extravagant, wonderful promises to humanity. Crucially, God is also a promise-keeping God. What He says, He does. And at a particular point in history, He fulfilled all of His promises in the life, death, resurrection and rule of one human Jesus, a carpenter from a small Jewish town. The good news is that God’s promises are promises kept.
This Good Book Guide will take you on a rapid tour of the whole story of the Bible. Over nine sessions, you ll travel from the beginning of the past, through our present, to the future. Each session you’ll discover one of God’s wonderful promises, and see how He kept it in Jesus.
It s a whirlwind tour. It s a breathtaking tour. And it s a tour we re part of…

John Introducing Jesus (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Its only when you sit down and talk with someone that you start to discover what they are really like.
What would it be like to have an intimate conversation with Jesus? What would you ask Him? What might He say to you?
In his Gospel, John records for us a series of conversations that Jesus had with different people. They include a confused minister and a desperate woman; a lifelong loser and an anxious politician.
From each conversation there emerges something new about Jesus who He is, what He came to do and what His priorities and concerns are. And each time we also hear Jesus speaking directly to us. He addresses our
doubts and our desires, our fears and our failings, our sorrows and setbacks, and challenges us to think differently about God, life and eternity.Use these studies to deepen your understanding of Jesus Christ, or perhaps even to be introduced to Him for the first time.

Ephesians : Gods Big Plan For Christs New People (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99“Why should I be a member of a local church? I’m a part of the body of Christ. Isn’t that enough?”
An increasing number of people think of the Christian faith primarily in terms of themselves as individuals. Faith is not only a personal but also a private matter. For these believers, church has become an optional extra, a matter of convenience and personal choice.
In his letter to the Ephesians, the apostle Paul says a firm “no” to this idea. The church of Christ far from being an optional extra; it is the display of God’s wisdom to the universe! The church is God’s handiwork, made up of people from every conceivable background, living under the gracious rule of Jesus himself. To be a part of the church is to be hand-selected by God through Christ to make visible the mystery of God’s electing love.
In short, Christianity is far more corporate and public than we might first expect. We are redeemed as individuals, but we are placed in a family. And living out the Christian life requires we live together with others who love the same Lord. It requires we actively participate in the church, for the church is God’s only plan to raise us to full maturity in Jesus Christ.
“Ephesians is one of the most beautiful books in the Bible,” Thabiti said. “The symmetry between rich theology and applied living can hardly be matched. So, if a Christian wants to think carefully about what he/she believes and then walk out their beliefs, Ephesians is an excellent book to study. I also love the book because of the honored place the book gives to the local church. If we would be healthy Christians, we would be wise to build our lives around the kind of church that emerges from the book of Ephesians.”
The ten studies in this Good Book Guide will help groups and individuals discover the richness of God’s grace towards His people, and grow as the body of Christ.

Experiencing God : Finding True Passion Joy Peace And Rest In Christ (Student/St
$9.99Have you had an experience of God? Its a question that provokes mixed reactions.
The word experience may set alarm bells ringing for some Christians, as they imagine the word means supernatural encounters, strange visions, voices or other revelations.
But the Bible, Gods final, complete revelation, reveals a different, yet no less marvellous experience of God. The wonderful truths of the Gospel, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit give Christians a unique experience of God, seen and felt in many ways. A love for Christ and for others. Peace in place of anxiety and joy in all circumstances. And a passion for doing good, and a deep sense of fulfilment and freedom.
These studies stem from the conviction that a deeper understanding of Gods gospel leads us to a genuine, life-transforming experience of the living God in Christ, which leaves us hungry to know Him more, and serve Him more faithfully. Work through them yourself, with a friend, your partner or in a Bible-study group to discover the riches that are yours in Christ.

He Leads Me Beside Still Waters (Student/Study Guide)
$16.99The book of Psalms has aptly been called “The Book of Praises” by ancient worshipers of Jehovah. The adoration of God is the prominent theme. Every word penned emits the aroma of humble worship and reverential fear. No other portion of Scripture is so capable of ushering the hungry soul into the Presence of God as this compilation of ancient Hebraic songs. “He Leads Me Beside Still Waters,” a 12week study of the choicest Psalms, will evoke in you a determined desire to find His Presence for yourself. This Bible study is part of “The Walk Series”, which includes “The Walk of Repentance,” “A Lamp Unto My Feet,” “Pressing On Toward the Heavenly Calling,” and “He Leads Me Beside Still Waters.”

Colossians : Confident Christianity (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99It happens all the time… People who start out well as Christians can end up light-years from the gospel of Jesus Christ, caught up in weird and not-so-wonderful cults, movements and traditions. They may still talk about Jesus, but their focus has shifted from the fundamental truths of who He is and what He has done to other things: rituals, rapturous experiences, morality, or an intense engagement with ideas and schools of thought. These other things become the focus of our Christianity. It seems that Jesus Christ and His saving death are no longer enough…
This kind of teaching was the reason Paul wrote his letter to the Colossian church. He recogniszed the fall-out of ‘moving on’ from the gospel we become unsure of God’s forgiveness because it no longer depends solely on Jesus; we become proud of what we do; and ultimately, these new spiritualities completely fail to deliver the new life that they promise.
Undoubtedly, Christians today face the same danger. These six studies can help us resist the fine-sounding arguments enticing us to add to what Jesus has done. Only if we are convinced about the true identity of Christ, and certain that He alone is all we need to grow, will we mature into confident Christians.
The six studies in this Good Book Guide will help groups and individuals find the way to achieve true Christian growth into confidence and fruitfulness.

Contentment : Healing The Hunger Of Our Hearts (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99We all know what it is to feel discontented with our lives with what we have, how much we can get, what we do, who we live with, how we are and what the future promises.
The constant hunger for something more may seem like the aches and pains of growing old something that we must just put up with in this far-from-perfect world. But the Bible shows that discontent is the symptom of a lethal disease that will kill us if we do not find a cure. It was discontent that first led humans into rebellion against God, with the catastrophic consequences that have followed from that decision.
Yet Jesus Christ promises that anyone who believes in Him will never again hunger or thirst. The apostle Paul was able to say that he had learned the secret of being content in any and every situation in need or in plenty. Discontent is a problem of our hearts not our circumstances. This Good Book Guide can help us to understand why we become discontented, how Jesus Christ alone can help us, and on a practical level, how Christian living can bring the treasure of contentment to our daily lives.

1 Thessalonians : Living To Please God (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Do you feel like an ordinary Christian. Not especially gifted or knowledgeable. Does anyone really notice your faith? Does any of it matter? Time to take a look at the Thessalonians.
When this group of ordinary first-century pagans believed in Jesus Christ, they changed so dramatically that many others across the Roman world were imitating their faith, hope and love. The apostle Paul, thrilled to see their vibrant Christian lives, recorded his delight in this lovely warm letter, packed with advice and encouragement to keep going. This was a transformation that would change lives, cultures and destinies far beyond first century Macedonia.
Learn through this Good Book Guide how an unremarkable, pointless existence, can be transformed into lives marked by an unshakeable faith, overflowing love and sensational hope. It is this kind of life that ordinary Christians like you are called to. So that, in the our world of suffering, hostility and trials we will be blameless and holy when our Lord Jesus comes.

The Apostles’ Creed is recited by Christians throughout the world each Sunday. For many it is a dull routine, and for others, it is spoken with confusion or doubt, rather than with confidence and joy.
Do we really need creeds? Increasingly, people do not like the idea of pinning truth down. Others want to stick to the Bible alone, and think that creeds have no place in our worship.
But most churches have found it helpful to have a summary of Christian beliefs. Creeds summarisze who we are, they teach us what is important and they help us avoid error. In modern business language, they are our ‘identity documents’.
This Good Book Guide aims to fill out the content of the short statements of this creed which are so familiar to us. In ten studies, it shows how they are derived from the Bible – the teaching of the apostles – and what the significance of this momentous formula is for our daily lives. Saying the creed need never be dull, confused or joyless again…

Holy Spirit : Understanding His Work In Our Lives (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99You may have heard a lot about the Holy Spirit… or very little. Christians and churches seem divided over this issue. Some are always talking about gifts of the Spirit, baptism of the Spirit, Spirit-filled people and so on. In other circles, the Spirit seems to be rarely mentioned.
There are plenty of books around that will claim to offer insight into the work of the Spirit…but what does the Bible actually say on the subject?
This Good Book Guide has been put together from a survey of every single verse in the Bible that mentions the Holy Spirit and His activity. It will help you discover what God’s Word means when it talks about being ‘filled with’ or ‘led by’ the Spirit. Or the differences between the Spirit’s work in the Old and New Testaments. You may be in for some surprises!
But most of all, this Good Book Guide will show how your life can and should be changed and shaped by the Spirit of God, who gives us life, and brings glory to Jesus Christ.
Please note: These studies take slightly longer than a typical Good Book Guide study.

David : Gods True King (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99It’s the stuff of legends.
An unknown, unlikely-looking kid defiantly takes on the ultimate enemy weapon – an enormous, unconquered super-warrior. He sets out unprotected and alone, yet astonishingly, he slaughters the evil giant – the enemy is routed and David wins a complete victory for his people.
It’s easy to see why the story of David and Goliath is still so popular. We love David the hero, the shepherd boy who became king of Israel, chosen by God as a man ‘after His own heart’. But what about David the despised ‘worm’, the hot-tempered bully, the weak father, the lustful playboy and the coldly-calculating murderer? Did God really know what He was doing when He chose David?
This Good Book Guide on the life of David reveals the secret of Davids success and the reasons for his many failures. But it also uncovers the greater story of a better hero. In just six sessions, you will learn how this weak Israelite king points us to the ultimate king, Jesus despised like the worm of Davids psalm, yet finally winning the ultimate victory for His people over sin and death.

How will he find his way through this land of shadows? Fortunately, the Father of lights has not left us to fend for ourselves; but rather, He has provided a roadmap, the Word of God. Little wonder that David christened it A Lamp Unto My Feet. A sequel to Gallaghers The Walk of Repentance, this is a 12week journey through the beautiful Psalm 119. This practical, personal study is a great resource for any individual seeking guidance in the midst of lifes struggles. Through daily meditation readings and questions for reflection, believers will be asked to consider the truths of Scripture.

Mark 9-16 : The Servant King (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Have you ever arranged to meet someone for the first time, only to miss them because you expected someone who looked quite different? But more serious would be to miss God Himself, just because He didn’t look like we expected…
This is exactly what happens in the second half of Mark’s Gospel. Jesus is the King. But He comes to serve and suffer, not to fight political battles. He is Israel’s Messiah. But He comes to judge those who believe they are already God’s people. He is the promised Rescuer, but He can’t even seem to save himself. Rejected by religious leaders, deserted by His followers, it seems everyone is missing who He really is.
Could we make the same mistake as the people of Jesus’ day? This Good Book Guide will help you to know and understand Jesus, just as Mark knew Him – nothing that people expected, but more than any of us could hope for.

Women Of Faith (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Ask the average person about women from the Old Testament and they will probably imagine that these ancient documents have little to say. After all, doesn’t the Bible come from an age in which women were totally repressed? In fact, until recently, hasn’t the Bible itself been responsible for keeping women down?
If these are opinions that you share or have come across, then this Good Book Guide will give you a totally different view of the Bible. It examines the lives and experiences of seven women from ancient Israel, highlighting their flaws and their faith, their struggles and solutions. Women who were wives, mothers and worshippers of God from a pagan prostitute to a prophetess waging war.
Through the lives of these women we learn about God, ourselves, the great problem with this world, and what God is doing about it. This is not just a history course these stories could change your life!

Zechariah : Gods Big Plan For Struggling Christians (Student/Study Guide)
$9.99Christians struggle. We struggle with ridicule and being ignored in a day of small things; with opposition to the message that Jesus is the only way to God; with our own failures and the devils accusations that make us question whether God accepts us. False teachers, false religion, and false priorities plague and distract us.
In Zechariahs day, Israel had returned from exile, but home was certainly not all they had hoped for. Zechariahs task was to bring comforting words to the struggling people of God.
These six Bible-studies open up Zechariahs reassuring and revitaliszing message for Gods discouraged people, including Gods great international building project; His solution to sin; His promised Shepherd-King; His great Day of judgement and salvation. Constantly focusing on what these things mean practically for Christians today, this course aims to help Christians live a life shaped, not by these days, but by that day when Gods big plan comes to glorious fruition.
