Esther: Daring Faith for Such a Time as This
A beautiful queen, her courageous cousin, a foreign land, and a murderous adversary—the book of Esther has all the elements of an epic drama. The story unfolds at a time when the people of God are split between nations with an uncertain future. While the name of God may not be mentioned in the book of Esther, its pages highlight His work among His people and foreshadow Jesus’s very ministry to us—darkness to light, mourning to celebration, death to life.
In this 7-session study, Kelly Minter invites you into the daring faith modeled by Esther and her cousin Mordecai—a faith developed over time, rooted in the goodness of God, lived out through extraordinary circumstances, and used to change the world. Although our time looks different from Esther’s, our God is just as active and faithful today, and He has called you for such a time as this.

The Way of Wisdom - A Study of the Book of Proverbs
The book of Proverbs describes godly wisdom as a path that leads to life and flourishing. It also warns of the folly of worldly wisdom as a path that leads to the grave. Every day we face the choice between the true riches of God’s instruction or the fool’s gold of earthly pleasures and pursuits. How often do we call to mind the wisdom found in the sayings of Proverbs to shed light on the path before us? How relevant do we even believe these ancient words are to our modern world?
In this 8-session study, Bible teachers Jen Wilkin, Ruth Chou Simons, Kelly Minter, Adrienne Camp, Elizabeth Woodson, and Courtney Doctor invite you to place your feet firmly on the path of life revealed in the book of Proverbs. As you consider wisdom principles on everyday topics like words, work, friendship, marriage, parenting, neighborliness, money management, leadership influence, and more, you’ll discover the wisdom of Proverbs as an invitation to steadily walk God’s way in God’s world.

You’ll also be challenged to respond to God’s call to be bold—because eternity is at stake.

Revelation: Eternal King, Everlasting Kingdom
Perhaps no other book of the Bible feels as inaccessible and as intimidating to us as the very last one. The book of Revelation overflows with images and ideas that confound our modern ears. But if all Scripture is God-breathed and profitable, we should assume Revelation is as accessible and helpful as any other book of the Bible. Why don’t we see it that way?
Two thousand years ago, John’s Revelation was circulated and read aloud among seven churches in Asia Minor. Those who heard the letter understood it and drew encouragement from its message. The same can be true for you today. Over 10 sessions of verse-by-verse Bible study, Jen Wilkin helps you discover how the last book of the Bible—the culmination of God's great story—speaks both a steadying word of assurance and a strong call to endure to the church in every age.

Sweeter Than Honey: A Bible Study on Enjoying God in His Word
Connect with God by Delighting in His Word
Our lives feel stuffed to the brink, overrun by work and home responsibilities, overwhelmed by jam-packed schedules, and overly distracted by the siren call of our smartphones. It's no wonder that we struggle to spend time in God's Word, or that when we do, we don't know where to start. Instead of a momentary delight, we need soul-satisfying sustenance from our Bible reading that fuels our deep longing to grow in godliness.
In this 7-session study, Gretchen Saffles and Maggie Combs of Well-Watered Women teach us the value of studying God’s Word while providing the tools to apply it to your life. Discover three principles that can be applied every time you open God’s Word: gather knowledge, digest the big ideas, and grow in godliness. As you develop these principles, you’ll experience the challenging but transformative work of building a deeper relationship with God through the pages of his Word.
In this Bible study, designed for both individuals and groups, readers will:
* Learn how to study Scripture to build trust and intimacy with God
* Find different study methods for the various seasons of life
* Understand the importance of context, genre, and Biblical theology
* Grow in their love for God’s life-changing Word
Sweeter than Honey will encourage you to cultivate both discipline and delight in God's Word, growing your confidence to engage with Scripture in a refreshed and transformative way.

Job: A Story of Unlikely Joy
Joy is the constant companion of the woman who trusts in the Lord. While we often find happiness in our friends, family, and circumstances, true, lasting joy—the kind that sustains us through every high and low—can only overflow from an abiding relationship with Jesus.
Join us as we journey through the life of Job, a man who lost everything yet clung to God’s goodness. Together, we'll explore how to hold on to joy in the midst of sorrow, grow deeper in faith, and support one another through life’s seasons.
Come expecting laughter, connection, truth—and the presence of the One who never changes.
In this 7-session study by Lisa Harper, discover the redemptive side to Job’s story of suffering. Learn to use pain to strengthen your faith, point others to the gospel, and remember God’s providence will never take you to a place where His grace will not sustain you.

Free Of Me: Why Life Is Better When It's Not About You
We live in a culture that's all about self, becoming the best "me" I can be instead of becoming like Jesus. This me-centered message affects every area of our lives--our friendships, our marriages, even our faith--and it breaks each one in different ways. The self-focused life robs our joy, shrinks our souls, and is the reason we never quite break free of insecurity.
In 6 sessions, Sharon Hodde Miller invites us into a bigger, Jesus-centered vision--one that restores our freedom and inspires us to live for more. She helps readers
* identify the secret source of insecurity
* understand how self-focus sabotages seven areas of our lives
* learn four practical steps for focusing on God and others
* experience freedom from the burden of self-focus
Anyone yearning for a purpose bigger than "project me" will cherish this paradigm-shifting message of true fulfillment.

No Other Gods - The Unrivaled Pursuit of Christ
Often, idols are obvious; money, power, fame. But subtler idols can sometimes take the form of sweet loved ones, Instagram-able interiors, and busy seasons of ministry.
But if your heart is prioritizing any of those pursuits before God, they are taking up space meant for Him alone.
In this 8-session study with Kelly Minter, learn to identify the functional gods you are serving daily and the lies they tell. Only when you learn to dethrone modern-day idols can you pursue a deeper, more meaningful relationship with Jesus.
