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.

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.

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.

There are many things that make Easter special, but the most special thing of all is that Jesus is alive!In the spring, around Easter time, nature seems to wake up like a family of bears after a long winter’s nap. Robins sing all day long in the bright sunshine. Baby chickens pop out of their shells, and baby bunnies hop around in the green grass. Boys and girls get candy, gifts, and new clothes. But as wonderful as all those things are, none of them is what really makes Easter special.Why Is Easter Special? by Barbara Miller Juliani shares the story of mama animals asking their babies if they know what makes Easter special. While the little ones have very good answers, they don’t have quite the right one. But one little girl and boy, Mia and Mason, do! Through engaging dialogue and gentle guidance, the story reveals that Easter is special because Jesus is alive, offering hope, friendship, and love that lasts forever.With warm, engaging illustrations by Stefano Martinuz, Why Is Easter Special? delights toddlers and preschoolers ages 2–5 while helping them look beyond candy, gifts, and other holiday traditions to the true joy of Easter—Jesus's resurrection. A special page for parents extends the conversation, offering simple ways to reinforce the story's message and make its spiritual lessons meaningful for young children.

You're expecting the arrival of a new little one any day. You've done your best to prepare, but you still have questions. Am I ready for this? Will I be a good mother? What if I make a mistake? Will my baby be okay?With the wisdom of experience, Barbara Miller Juliani helps you untangle the sources of your worries and leads you to Christ as the one who cares and provides for you and your baby. Offering helpful Scriptures to guide your mind and heart, she walks you through many of the practical realities of motherhood that provide opportunities to grow in faith and to trust God with your child.

When your teenager is estranged from you and God and is making unwise (and perhaps downright awful) choices, it's natural to feel hopeless and helpless. Perhaps you have already done everything you know to do—you have talked with them at length, applied consequences, asked others for help, and prayed desperately, but still you see no change in your child's life or choices.Barbara Miller Juliani draws from her own experience of rebellion and also from decades of ministry to families to encourage weary parents that they can lean hard into the Lord for help in this difficult season. She walks readers through biblical truths about God that will remind them that he is aware of their situation and struggles, that he is near to help, and that he is calling them to walk in faith that results in small, tangible ways to love their teenager.
