What would you like to change about yourself and the world we live in? How would you go about making the change--and making it stick? In the Gospel of Mark, we learn that all real change comes from meeting Jesus. When he came near, everything changed. The sick were healed, wrongs were righted, sinners were saved, storms were stopped, and death is ended. These stories from long ago still bring us the same hope today--forgiveness and new life forever. Mark: All Things Are Possible with Jesus makes Jesus's words and actions come alive, bringing with them amazement, conviction, comfort, and the power to change us and our messed-up world. Jesus is still doing his work in the world today, bringing the kingdom of God near and giving life to all who love him. Featuring twelve lessons from the Gospel of Mark, this easy-to-use small group resource includes leader's notes, discussion questions, a short article, and a practical application section that can be used for one-to-one discipleship, small group, or large group settings. Part of The Gospel-Centered Life in the Bible series, Mark: All Things Are Possible with Jesus examines how the gospel story is revealed through both the Old and New Testaments and is published in partnership with Serge.

How long? Why is this happening? Where are you, God? For centuries, God's people have learned to go to God with their real questions, struggles, and everyday needs by reading and studying the Psalms. In this practical, gospel-rich small group study, authors Barbara Juliani and Patric Knaak guide participants in learning how the Psalms give us words to pray about the real struggles in our lives. Faith in Christ brings us into a living relationship with God, which means we can go to God in every circumstance and with every reaction of our hearts. We don't need to pretend things are good when they are not, or that we are strong when we are not. The Psalms are God's gift to his people--his own words we can pray to strengthen our hearts and faith. This small group guide with leader's notes includes ten in-depth lessons that include discussion questions, a short article to read, and a practical application section that can be used for one-to-one discipleship, small group, or large group settings. Psalms: Real Prayers for Real Life is part of The Gospel-Centered Life in the Bible series published in partnership with Serge. Each book in the series examines how the gospel story is revealed throughout both the Old and New Testaments.
