This book is an invitation to make the Word of God your home through the practice of lectio divina .Macrina Wiederkehr, OSB, encourages you to turn the words of Scripture over in your heart as a plough turns over the soil to welcome the seed.

Book Description
You don't have to keep striving for freedom. You can live into the freedom you already have in Christ. In You Are Free, Rebekah Lyons--author of Rhythms of Renewal--reveals her journey of releasing stress, anxiety, and worry to uncover the peace that comes from Jesus Christ. Have you bought into the lie? So many of us do. We measure our worth by what others think of us. We compare and strive, living our lives for the approval of others. Pressure rises, fear and anxiety creeps in, and we hustle to keep up. But Jesus tells us that he gave his life to set us free, giving us purpose and calling us to live in that God-given freedom and purpose. Maybe we're afraid to live in this truth because we can't even believe it. Rebekah reminds us that Christ doesn't say we can be or may be or will be free. He says we are free. Do you dare to believe it? In You Are Free, Rebekah invites you to: Overcome the exhaustion of trying to meet others' expectations and rest in the joy that God's freedom brings Find permission to grieve past experiences, confess your areas of brokenness, and receive strength in your journey toward healing Throw off self-condemnation and step boldly into what our good God has for you Discover the courage to begin again and use your newfound freedom to set others free Freedom is for everyone who wants it--the lost, the wounded, and those weary from all of the striving. It's for those of us who gave up trying years ago and for those of us who are angry and hurt, burnt out by the Christian song and dance. You are the church, the people of God. You were meant to be free. Join Rebekah as she helps you discover the freedom that comes when we learn that God is enough.

The Holy Spirit empowers us, guides us, and enables us to grow and endure in our relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ.

Book Description
The A.B.I.D.E. Study Journal For Students is designed to equip and encourage teens in their walk with Jesus. It can be used for your own personal study or in the context of a small group. It's also the perfect study for discipling teens who are new to faith or are exploring faith in Christ for the first time. The A.B.I.D.E study method is intentionally designed to help enrich your time in God's Word. It provides the tools needed to open up your Bible, dive in, and study the precious words of Scripture for yourself. As I served as a pastor to women for over a decade, I became aware that many teens and young women did not know how to do this for themselves or with their friends. This inspired me to create this journal to equip them to learn from God directly through Scripture. The A.B.I.D.E Study Journal will help bring structure and focus to your time in God's Word. It provides a rich daily encounter with God through prayer, the study of Scripture and relevant life application questions. In learning how to abide with Jesus, you will begin to relax and grow more confident in your ability to hear, discern, and respond accordingly to what the Holy Spirit is teaching you. By learning and applying the 5-steps of A.B.I.D.E. to your daily reading of Scripture, you will be amazed at how God's Word comes alive and draws your attention to details that you previously would not have noticed. The A.B.I.D.E. Study Journal For Students also includes 12 perforated scripture memory cards in the back of your book. May His Word find a home with you, my friend!
