We all face 'storms', they are inevitable to life. What matters is how we prepare ourselves beforehand in order to live through them and emerge stronger in God on the other side. These 'storms' and challenges offer us real opportunities to shine the Light of Life we carry in our hearts but it will not shine if our foundation is unstable and we do not know the nature, promises, character and faithfulness of our covenant-keeping God. These things are the true hope of the gospel the people around us need too. Some years ago I found a photograph of a lighthouse standing strong in the midst of an angry swirling sea. The waves were so high they reached half-way up the side of the building. When I looked more closely I could see the lighthouse keeper stood in the doorway with his arms folded and every appearance of calm and peace. This image really spoke to me and since then I have been taken on a journey with God which I now share with you in Through The Storm.

The Walking with God series of studies encourages disciples to dig deeper in building their personal relationship with God whilst, at the same time, challenging them to nurture a missionary mind set which is to see people as Jesus sees them with a heart to demonstrate His love through various means of service.The studies in this booklet are the second of the series. The aim is, through Bible study and follow up home exercises, disciples find personal healing and spiritual freedom as well as understand what it means to be a wholehearted follower of Jesus. It is hoped that as disciples enjoy gathering and growing together regularly they will want to carry on in their journey of discipleship by completing other Bible studies in the Walking with God series or other studies within New Beginnings Discipleship. The end-goal is that some will become effective disciple-makers themselves.

Following Jesus is not always straightforward or easy. The material in this book is challenging but gradually builds towards the goal of becoming a multiplying disciple. The objective is to faithfully learn, understand & apply the message and power of the Kingdom of God. The course format is divided up into weeks, each containing five study days with the idea that the two remaining days are either for rest or catch up. This is done simply because the course must have some structure but it is not meant to be unswervingly followed. The point is not how quickly the material is completed but rather how deeply it is worked through and how seriously the lessons learned are applied.

Restoring Eden contains the true story of a group of people in rural England who simply had a heart to seek God, listen to what He said, put His word into practice and then saw what He did. Restoring Eden also contains the reproducible strategy for prayer God gave them. The strategy is simple and it begins with this: if a united group of believers identify the various footholds the enemy has gained in their community, 'stand in the gap' in heartfelt repentance and then seek God's face in worship with humility of heart, we have His promise from scripture that He will hear our prayers and heal (restore) our land (2 Chronicles 7:14).

Biblical Feasts takes a fresh look at all the biblical feasts. This is done from the perspective of reconnecting Gentile believers with the Hebraic roots of our faith: what the feasts are for and why they were put in place. We also learn of the overarching theme of the Jewish wedding and feast by feast trace the Bridegroom Messiah Jesus in them. Finally we consider the prophetic meaning of the feasts for us today and what Father God might be saying to us His bride through them.
