10 Women Of The Bible Updated Edition (Student/Study Guide)
$21.99Do you ever feel like a second-class citizen in this world?
Do you wonder how God could possibly use you to change lives?
For women in Bible times, these weren’t even questions they thought about. Being overlooked, marginalized, having your contributions discounted because you’re a woman… it’s just the way things were. In this ten-lesson workbook, Max Lucado tells some of his favorite accounts of women in Scripture and the remarkable way God broke down cultural barriers to use them in the unfolding of His story.
You will discover…
*Sarah, the woman whom God promised would give birth to a nation, but who tried to rush things when God’s promises didn’t seem to be coming to pass.
*Rahab, a prostitute in the Canaanite city of Jericho, who would save herself and her family through her faith in the one true God of the Israelites.
*Abigail, a woman forced to play peacemaker by the barbaric behavior of her husband.
*Esther, a young queen whom God placed in the Persian court for “such a time as this” to prevent the genocide of the Jewish people.
*Mary, the young virgin pledged to Joseph, whom God would choose to give birth to Jesus, the promised Messiah who would save the world.
*The Samaritan Woman, who would meet this Messiah at a well one day. His words would forever after change her life.
*The Canaanite Woman, who made God smile with her wit and faith, and who received from Jesus an answer to her prayer.
*Mary of Bethany, a friend of Jesus who witnessed the resurrection of her brother, Lazarus, and then anointed Christ in anticipation of his death and resurrection.
*Mary Magdalene, who followed Jesus despite the injustice of a world that judged her for her past and said she would always be considered a failure.
*Sapphira, a woman in the early church who, along with her husband, made the unfortunate (and deadly) decision to lie to the Holy Spirit.
These stories show us there is a God who sees us where we are and loves us for who we are. He is the one who hovers over all the pages of the Bible, shaping lives, rescuing hearts, healing sicknesses, raising what was dead to life, and passing out high callings to those who choose to follow him and have faith in him.
Each lesson includes:
*Five daily in-depth Bible studies to help you explore the stories in Scripture
*Daily points to remember to help you summarize the key points
*Daily prayers to help you focus your thoughts and move into your quiet time

What Happens Next Bible Study Guide Plus Streaming Video (Student/Study Guide)
$21.99What comes to mind when you think about the end times? If you are like many Christians, you might not think about it much at all. You have a carpe diem kind of faith that focuses on the here and now. Why occupy your thoughts with the “not yet” when you have enough to deal with in the “right now”? The answer is simple: because Jesus focused on the end times. A full thirty percent of his teachings in the Gospels have to do with discourses on heaven, hell, and the events that will signal the final age. So, if Jesus made the end times a priority, it only makes sense that his followers would make it a priority as well.
Perhaps one of the reasons why you don’t like to think about the end times is because you know it will involve turmoil and strife. Indeed, Jesus said the final days would be marked by events that include economic turmoil, political conflicts, ethnic tensions, persecution of Christians, famines, wars and rumors of wars, diseases, false prophets, waning faith in Jesus, and other fearful sights. Jesus declared, “All these are the beginning of birth pains” (Matthew 24:9). Labor pains increase in frequency and intensity as the delivery draws near. Jesus was speaking of a day in which the same will happen in the world.
Now, when it comes to considering these events that will signal the end of the age, you have a choice as to how you will respond. You can see these circumstances through the eyes of fear or faith. The eyes of fear see little reason for hope and ample reason for anxiety. However, the eyes of faith see history inching closer and closer to a new era that will usher in a heavenly destiny–a time when you will “reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize” (Philippians 3:14 nlt). God has told you what to expect not to scare you but to prepare you. He is like a pilot on the intercom telling the passengers about impending turbulence. A good pilot keeps his travelers informed. Your good Father does the same!
God wants you to have a deep-seated confidence that he is firmly on his throne and the future is in his hands. He has given prophecy to empower his saints with the reassurance that whatever happens in this life, he is ultimately sovereign.

What Happens Next
$29.99Be Prepared, Not Scared
Are we living in the end times? If so, what does that mean for you?
In contrast to the confusion and anxiety that often comes with this topic, Max Lucado believes God wants us to be prepared, not scared; informed, not intimidated. He writes: “The future is not frightening if you know the future. And you can know the future when you know who holds it.”
What Happens Next is an optimistic, accessible, and nonsensational guide to what the Bible says about heaven’s time line that will empower you to face the future with faith. Max takes you on a well-researched overview of what God’s Word says, exploring the following four big ideas that provide a solid foundation for understanding God’s eternal plan:
*We were made to reign with Christ.
*God has made and will keep his promises.
*Heaven has a time line.
*A golden era-the millennium-awaits God’s children.Plus, Max takes you on a journey of the time line of history, examining essential milestones such as the rapture, the seven years of tribulation, and the glory of heaven.
Whether you find yourself in the “I can’t wait,” “I’m almost ready,” or “I’m not sure about all of this” camp, you will be encouraged to ponder God’s promises for the future.
In Max’s signature encouraging style, he reminds us, “It’s all about hope. It’s all about him.”

God Never Gives Up On You
$29.99Ever wonder if you’ve had one too many stumbles for God to use someone like you? If you could benefit from a tale of God’s unending, unbending, unswerving love and devotion, let bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado show you how God’s grace will transform your life.
God Never Gives Up on You is a book for the members of the Lost Halo Society. For the strugglers among us and the fumbler within us. For those of us who are part saint, part scoundrel. We mean well, but we don’t always do well. We have breakthroughs and breakdowns, often in the same hour. We need no reminder of our failures, but we could always use a refresher course on God’s perfect plan to use imperfect people to do great things.
No one is more suited to the task than Jacob. He was less a prodigy and more a prodigal. Strong on savvy. Low on conscience. Jacob took advantage of his famished brother and pulled the wool over the eyes of his dying father, yet God never turned his back on Jacob.
God used Jacob because God chose to use Jacob. Period. The word for that kind of devotion? Grace. Grace came after Jacob. Grace found him in the desert. Grace protected him in exile. Grace wrestled him to the ground and blessed him. Grace led him home to Canaan.
By taking a closer look at Jacob’s incredible story, you will:
*learn to see the ways God turns your brokenness into blessings,
*overcome shame and negative thoughts by embracing who you are in the eyes of a loving, merciful God, and
*strengthen your relationships by leading a life marked by grace and forgiveness for yourself and others.
Jacob’s story invites us to believe in a God who sticks beside the unworthy and underachievers and leads us safely home. If God can use Jacob to further his kingdom, he can use us too. Let Max show you how.

And the answers he’s found give us all hope. God knows what it’s like to be a human. When we talk to him about deadlines or long lines or tough times, he understands. He’s been there. He’s been here. Because of Bethlehem, we have a friend in heaven.

These are the heart-shaping promises of Christmas. Long after the guests have left and the carolers have gone home and the lights have come down, these promises endure.
Let’s turn on the lamp, curl up in a comfortable spot, and look into the odd, wonderful story of Bethlehem.
Max has found a lifetime of hope, and you will, too.

Im Not A Scaredy Cat
$17.99Number one New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado will delight you and your family with the silly new picture book I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat. Laugh-out-loud funny, yet filled with an important message that God is near so there’s no need to fear, kids will learn to put into perspective those things that frighten or worry them.
I’m a big cat. I’m a strong cat. I’m not a scaredy-cat . . . except when . . .
I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat will take children on a silly series of misadventures as the cat character faces an appalling abundance of (gulp!) yellow and pink sprinkles on his donut, an elephant on the verge of a sneeze, and the terrifyingly loud chime of a clock. For the over-the-top yet funny things our character is fearful of, Max provides a biblical way to overcome fear by adapting his teaching on Philippians 4 to a child’s level.
To avoid introducing new fears to children, this whimsical story depicts a cute cat character facing fears that are fanciful or exaggerated. These silly scenarios will create talking points for parents to help their children understand what to do when they feel afraid.
Though the fears and anxiety may or may not be justified, the scriptural teachings and biblical antidotes to fear are real. When put into practice, Lucado’s teaching will help both children and their parents face their fears, manage their anxiety, and trust God. This book will have kids laughing as they learn critical life lessons:
“God, you are good.
God, you are near.
God, you are here!
And, God, you love me.”A fun read for children and parents, I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat will open doors for important conversations in a nonthreatening way and provide helpful tools that can be applied to help kids manage their fears and trust God.
Featuring the artwork of Illumination and Moonbeam Award-winning illustrator Shirley Ng-Benitez and full of Max’s signature warmth and wisdom, I’m Not a Scaredy-Cat is the perfect story for you and your little ones to enjoy together for years to come.

On Calvarys Hill
