The Man God Uses (for Men)

By the author of Experiencing God, this exciting study for men is designed to provide spiritual direction and
encouragement. Men are being touched by God all over our country, and men who have encountered God need to understand what He is doing in their lives and what their lives can mean when turned over to God. This interactive study of Scripture clearly shows how response should be in their personal lives, families, work, church, and community.

Soul Shaping

From modernity’s typically linear perspective, spiritual disciplines are a to-do list with a formula: do these things and you will develop and mature. The downside is that formulas can become mechanical and regimented to the point of missing the purpose. So this study encourages believers to experiment with multiple spiritual disciplines and to develop an appreciation for and balance of each.
Facilitator: Jim Stone

The Prayer of Jesus

For those who long for a deep, enriching prayer life and the intimacy with God that it brings, The Prayer of Jesus helps believers live the truths Jesus taught in the Lord's Prayer. Topics addressed include three reasons prayer doesn't seem to work, and three realities, responsibilities, requests, and reminders from the Prayer of Jesus. So if you wish to learn the secrets to a truly rich and rewarding prayer life, how can you go wrong … with Him as your teacher?

Putting on the Armor

Are you battling daily with temptations, including addictive and/or dysfunctional behavior? Before we even begin preparing to face the physical world, we need to be ready to fight in the spiritual realm. Until we put on the armor of God, we’re not ready to walk out the door. This study does not offer “cures” for any temptation, but does lay out the path to victory for every believer.  Lawless believes that Ephesians 6:10-20 gives us clear direction on how to fight the enemy and how to develop and demonstrate effective Christian living. Excellent study for new and growing believers seeking practical application of personal spiritual disciplines in order to defeat the enemy in times of temptation.

Facilitator: Ken Bozeman

Love Your God With All Your Mind

This isn't rehearsal. This is it.

Everything about the world you live in, as a  teenager, is aimed at preparing you for the future. You are constantly bombarded by messages saying that life is “up ahead,” just out of reach, somewhere in the future. But that is not our call as Christ-followers. God is at work today and is calling you to live a life on mission with Him . . . right here . . . right now. This isn’t rehearsal. This is it.
