Life in ancient times was a struggle for survival, many times removed from the relaxed, comfortable existence most of us enjoy today. For women especially, simply living often meant enduring a harsh society that viewed women as voiceless entities more like property than persons. Still, faith blossomed and thrived. Explore the bold, yet inspirational lives of Old Testament women such as Hannah, Hagar, Abigail, and others. This Leader's Guide is for the fourth 6-week video study in the Sisters Bible Study series. Each study group member will need to purchase a participant's workbook separately. The format of each study session is: -A session introduction by the series host with a 7-8 minute presentation of the session material to the group by the study presenter, a small group discussion (i.e., 4-6 women) facilitated by the study presenter after viewing the video, and the remaining 60-90 minutes spent discussing the session material.

Raised in poverty on an Iowa farm, the Cherry Sisters had little education and no training. But they possessed a burning desire to take to the stage and show the world what they could do--and what they could do was awful. Their unique act was "so bad it was good." When the sisters took the stage, they were met with rotten fruit and vegetables, festering meat, dead cats... Riots often broke out after (and sometimes during) their concerts, but they carried on, changing attitudes--and laws--along the way. This book follows the five women through their forty-year career in vaudeville theaters across the U.S. Proud, fearless and fiercely independent in a time when women were treated as second-class citizens, the Cherry Sisters insisted that their voices be heard.

Sharing the gospel with a family member can be an exciting experience—and often a long, painful, and confrontational one. Randy Newman recognizes it can be more difficult and frustrating to witness to a family member than to nearly anyone else. In Bringing the Gospel Home, he delivers practical, holistic strategies to help average Christians engage family members and others on topics of faith. A messianic Jew who has led several family members to Christ, Newman urges Christians to look to the Bible before they evangelize. He writes, "a richer understanding of biblical truth, I have found, can provide a firmer foundation for bold witness and clear communication." After a brief introduction on the nature of family, he delves into discussions of grace, truth, love, humility, and time. He also addresses issues related to eternity and end-of-life conversations. Bringing the Gospel Home will help any Christian as he seeks to guide loved ones into God's family.

Part 1 The blood symbolism is traced from Genesis to The Cross. After Eve became the first sinner, she then tempted her husband Adam to sin also. God killed animals and gave the couple the animal skins to cover their bodies. Symbolically the animals blood pointed to Jesus shedding his blood in His death to cover the sins of all mankind. Chapters include research connecting that blood in childbirth, blood in the first Passover, blood in the menstrual cycle all are symbols pointing to the blood of Jesus shed on the cross. Gods people are commanded not to eat blood. A survey was made of the countries that use animal blood in preparing food. Also, an investigation was made into the way animals are killed in the USA, and how their blood was drained from their carcasses, making meat comply with Gods law. Bible women Rahab and Tamar are studied and their connection with the symbolism of the redeeming blood of Jesus. Christians take communion symbolically remembering Jesus shed His blood for our sins today. Part 2 Short life stories of women whose lives inspire us and who help make this world a better place.

Being hurt and heartbroken is a sad reality for most of us. But I'm so thankful for this treasure of a book written by my friend Suzie Eller. Page by page, Suzie will help you understand how God's truth can heal your pain so you can move forward whole and healed. - Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times Bestselling Author and President of Proverbs 31 Ministries Brokenness happens. Tragedy, sin or the painful choices of others all have the ability to disrupt an otherwise contented life. And as a result of our heartache, we often attempt to fix our own brokenness—with disastrous results. If you've tried to heal, but keep ending up in the same place—whether the battle is in your heart or out in the open where everyone can see—The Mended Heart is for you. In this book, author Suzanne Eller tells it like it is: people throw quick fixes at you, or tell you to pull yourself up by your bootstraps (whatever that means). More important, though, she shares the powerful truth of Jesus' mission as outlined in Luke 4:18-21: He came to set free all those who are oppressed and in need of mending. You don’t have to fix yourself—Jesus loves you right where you are. In fact, He has already completed the work that needs to be done. The Mended Heart will encourage you to trust Him, to give and receive grace, and to move ahead even stronger than before … even if others don’t move with you.

It is very simple! The inhabitants of the earth must band together to change course immediately or the world will plunge into the most terrifying, catastrophic, destruction, the likes of which there is no coming back from. There is only one door of opportunity for the world, and if we as a planet do not walk through it immediately, we are all doomed to suffer a terrible fate. Revelation 6 may be upon us, but would God grant us a stay of preparation for the horrors to come? A watchman, civil rights activist, self taught section 1983 and Constitutional scholar for over 25 years, and a self taught biblical scholar for 34 years, in this book, WLBJ reminds us of Ephesians 6:12, that we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, and powers of darkness. With stunning imagery, The Republicrat goes into great detail to explain why these demonic powers not only want, but need the earth to be plunged into nuclear war in order to get the key to the abyss, and why competing world powers must avoid taking the bait and being used to facilitate this. Tackling some of today's most explosive geopolitical topics, such as the latest alleged coup attempt by the Wagner group, the Russian/Ukraine conflict, the Mexican Drug Cartel, the LGBT debate, North Korea, China, and the bitter divide between Republicans and Democrats, WLBJ uses what he coins, "Biblical Geopolitical Analysis," to discuss why we are fighting the wrong enemy, as he attempts to break the spell of witchcraft that plots the whole world against itself. See what it will take to avoid the horrors at the world's doorstep, and why making the right choices could not only avoid the darkest of world catastrophes, but instead, usher in the greatest time of peace and prosperity the world has ever known.
