All day, every day, an invisible war rages around you. A cunning, devilish enemy seeks to wreak havoc on everything that matters to you―your emotions, mind, family, and future. But his reign stops right here, right now with you.

The enemy always miserably fails when he meets a woman dressed for the occasion—a woman who is armed and dangerous.

This is more than just a biblical description of the believer’s inventory. It is an action plan for putting on your armor and developing a personalized strategy to secure victory against the enemy.

The Bait of Satan exposes one of the most deceptive snares Satan uses to get believers out of God’s will – offense. This trap restrains countless Christians, severs relationships, and widens the gulfs between us. Jesus said, “It is impossible that no offenses should come.” (Luke 17:1). Although you will encounter offense, you can choose how you will react.

  • Deepening Life Together
    • Paul – The apostle Paul did more than any other person in the ancient world to assure that Christianity became a cross-cultural movement rather than an obscure Jewish sect. His writings make up much of the New Testament. How did Jesus take a young hothead who persecuted Christians and turn him into the first evangelist to the Gentiles? What can we learn from the way Paul responded to God’s call?

ü  DVD – 1

ü  Book – 1

  • Ephesians – Can we trust God with everything in our lives? What does Christ’s sacrifice mean for our relationships? Will we ever be holy? Each 10-15-minute session guides you deeper into the Scriptures, with provocative insights from renowned scholars.

ü  DVD – 1

ü  Book – 2

  • Acts – Through the bold witness of the first Christians, the gospel spread throughout the world. God used ordinary men and women to do the extraordinary. What is God calling you to do for Him? How does the community of believers today effectively act as God’s hands and feet in a hurting world?

ü  DVD – 1

ü  Book – 1

  • Praying God’s Way – If God knows our thoughts, why should we pray? What is the proper way to pray? Will God answer all of our prayers? What if it doesn’t seem like He’s listening?

ü  Book – 1

  • Promises of God – The most important promise God ever made was that He would restore the broken relationship between Himself and those who bear His image. What happened in the garden, and what were the long-term effects on God’s creation? How does God’s sweeping plan of redemption affect our lives? How are we called to respond to God’s promise in our communities?

ü  DVD – 1

ü  Book – 1

  • John – John’s account of Jesus’ life and ministry differs in substance and style from the other Gospels. His unique perspective challenges us to re-examine our beliefs about the Lord. Why did Jesus perform miracles, and what did they mean? How might our traditions hinder a true understanding of who Jesus really is? How can we follow Christ’s example of selfless love in our families, churches, and communities?

ü  DVD – 1

ü  Book – 1

  • Romans – Paul boldly told believers, “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” But how does that work on the day-to-day level? What does the Christian life look like when it is lived out both individually and in communities of faith? How can we be in the world but not of the world?

ü  DVD – 1

ü  Book – 1

  • Revelation – If you could use only one word to describe the book of Revelation, what would you choose? Scary? Weird? What about hopeful? It may seem odd, but John’s revelation was supposed to bring hope to Christians living in the dark times of Roman persecution. So, what are John’s strange visions all about – and what on earth do they have to do with modern-day believers? What should we expect when Jesus returns? And what does God promise to those who persevere?

ü  Participant’s Guide – 1 copy

The heart of Christianity is not a ritual or a structure but a Person – Jesus Christ. But even as His followers, our vision of Jesus can get muddied by human-made theories of who He was. Whether you’re a seasoned believer or a brand-new Christian, walk in the footsteps of His first disciples to see Him afresh as: Teacher, Healer, Shepherd, Servant, Saviour, and Risen Lord. These six sessions lay the foundation for radical discipleship as our hearts are once again captured by who He is.

This radical, eye-opening series challenges churches to involve their members in 42 days of action-oriented awareness and one soul-searching question on poverty and injustice from World Vision U.S. President Richard Stearns, “What does God expect of us?”

This is a story of how a CEO faced his struggle to obey God, whatever the cost, and his passionate call for Christians to change the world by actively living out their faith, believing that the “good news” is more than a private transaction between God and us. The series includes fast-paced and hard-hitting documentary DVD “shorts” and real-life pack-a-punch stories and insights on poverty and injustice―probing and pondering the 2,000 verses in the Bible that address poverty and injustice.

What’s weighing on you? Has someone or something left you feeling rejected, guilty, or broken? Jesus met many broken people stuck in poverty, religion, sickness, sin, and even death. But Jesus saw through their circumstances and fulfilled their deepest needs. It was never too late.

In this 28-day study journal, you’ll embark on a journey through Jesus’ life and ministry that will lead you to recall your past wounds, reorient your present identity, and reimagine your future. It contains Scripture, reflection questions, and guided lessons that can stand alone as a personal study, or act as a participant’s guide for the I Can Only Imagine Video Series.

Surrounded by brokenness, it’s hard to imagine a loving father, complete forgiveness, and eternal restoration. But when you learn to see yourself through God’s eyes, you will finally find rest in His approval, purpose, and eternal hope. Reveal the heart of God who loves you more than you can imagine.
