The New Testament Challenge is designed to help small-group members explore the books of the New Testament in a fresh and new way. In this Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), participants will learn how the story of God restoring his original creation—which was begun in the Old Testament—reached its crowning moment with the birth of Messiah into the world. Through Jesus'' birth, he answered the question once and for all of who God is and what he is like. Through Jesus'' teaching, he revealed the deepest meaning of the laws and institutions that God gave to the people of Israel. Through Jesus'' death and resurrection, he introduced the life of the age to come into the present age. Group members will also discover how the followers of Jesus formed a new community and invited people from all over the world to join them, and how the Bible looks ahead to the day when Christ will return to renew all of creation and establish God''s justice and peace on the earth.

Designed for use with The New Testament Challenge Video Study (sold separately).

Mark’s gospel has an urgency to it that’s hard to ignore. It''s as if he is breathless, trying to get the information out as quickly as he can. A few decades have passed since Jesus’ ministry, and with persecution intensifying, some believers were tempted to compromise or simply give up on being a follower of the Messiah. 

So, Mark needed to take the early Christians back to the basics and get them ready to move!

In this six-session study (video streaming code included), pastor Jeff Manion takes you and your group through the gospel of Mark to answer such urgent questions about the Christian faith as:  

These questions are not born of a lack of faith but serve to strengthen and stabilize our relationship with the Savior.  So, lace up your running shoes. Open your heart and mind. And come with your questions! Get ready to move as Mark’s Gospel reveals what it means to follow Jesus.

The Counter-Cultural Move from Accumulation to Abundance

Why is it so hard to find the contented, satisfied life? What deep hungers drive our purchasing habits, accumulation, and consumer lifestyle?

Satisfied is for those drowning in debt, but also those getting farther and farther ahead financially. It is for those who have forgotten who they are and mistakenly equate their self-worth with their net worth. It is for those who are crippled by comparison. It is for those with full closets and empty souls.

Satisfied provides an inspiring and transformative vision for living a deeply contented life in our consumer-driven culture.

"Jeff Manion''s voice is such a wise, clear, helpful voice, and I''m so thankful for the timely and challenging invitation he''s issued in these pages. I''m inspired to live more richly with fewer things, and to pursue gratitude and generosity with more intention." - Shauna Niequist, author of Bread and Wine

How do you build a life of significance? 

As pastor and writer Jeff Manion shares in Dream Big, Think Small, truly great lives are built on the foundation of a holy redundancy--a persistence and determination to move faithfully in the right direction.

Dream Big, Think Small will provide:

So many believers want their lives to count, but they are impatient with the slow pace at which goodness grows. Many of us struggle to embrace the faithfulness required to show up day after day after day. In Dream Big, Think Small Manion helps to reveal the joy in the small, seemingly inconsequential actions you take every day. Ultimately, you will learn how small persistent steps lead to tremendous and lasting results. 

Filled with Manion''s trademark inspiring stories and insightful biblical teaching, Dream Big, Think Small challenges you to explore the spiritual prescription of steady faithfulness. Following the principles of perseverance, intentionality, and discipline outlined in this book, you will see lasting and astonishing results in your spiritual health, within your marriage and family, in the quality of your work, and in a more authentic ability to honor God with your life.
