As Christians find themselves trapped in the rhetoric of platform, influence, retweets, and fame, they need a ladder out of the fray. Many of us live in a prison of self-absorption. Shackled with pride and despair, we compare ourselves to others constantly in our frantic, unending pursuit of perfection. Seated with Christ gets to the root of this behavior and charts a path to freedom. Scripture says that God’s beloved are seated with Christ in the heavens (Eph. 2:6), treasured by Him and given a place at His table. Heather Holleman unveils what this means for us. It means we walk out on the fight for acceptance. We quit measuring ourselves to others.We leap free from cycles of shame. Securely-seated people can ask themselves hard questions about their lives; they can deal with sin, grieve their losses, and move forward in hope. From a position of security and self-forgetfulness they can joyfully do the good works prepared for them uniquely. They can even celebrate the successes of others. Seated with Christ is a deeply personal, liberating look at a glorious truth: that we have a place at God's eternal table.

Knowing Jesus Bible Study Book includes small-group experiences for six sessions, weekly individual study opportunities, applicable Scripture, "How to Use This Study," and tips for leading a group. Early Christian tradition suggests that John's exclusive purpose for writing his Gospel was to proclaim Jesus as the Christ, the Son of God. He wanted his readers to know Jesus--from His words, from the words of others, and from His miracles. This small group study begins with an examination of the miracles recorded in the Gospel of John. It then takes you into the "I am" statements--what Jesus said about Himself. And the last two sessions focus on witnesses who affirmed who Jesus was and is. Knowing Jesus will help you grow in your faith, excel in good works, and know Jesus more intimately. Features: - Biblically rooted and gospel-centered - Group and personal components - Individual study opportunities for ongoing spiritual growth Benefits: - Dismiss a passing, lighthearted relationship with Jesus and pursue deeper discipleship. - Know Jesus through the eyewitness accounts of others. - Better understand Jesus by His miracles. - Develop a deeper understanding of Jesus as the Messiah through what He said about Himself. - Grow in faith through a more intimate knowledge of Jesus. - Excel in good works that flow from a growing relationship with Jesus.

You cannot make it without God’s mercy. Do we just need God’s grace in dark and shameful moments? Are prayers for mercy only for those times when we really mess up? Jonathan Parnell says we need God’s mercy all the time. In fact, contrary to many church cultures, Parnell shows that asking God for mercy should be as regular as asking God for our daily bread. There’s no doubt that David was in a terrible predicament when he first prayed the words of Psalm 51. It was a dark and shameful moment in the Bible, and one so dark and shameful it seldom feels relevant to us today. But David’s most desperate prayer is really a prayer for all of us—and not just for our worst moments, but for our every moment. In these pages, you'll discover: how to pray a daily, memorable prayer derived from Psalm 51 how to practice daily repentance and soul care how to pursue God and experience his joy in the Christian life This is God’s mercy, and it’s Mercy for Today.
