Ruth - Living in God's Unfailing Faithfulness
Ruth - Living in God's Unfailing Faithfulness
This in-depth Bible Study offers a verse by verse study of Ruth that allows flexibility for a variety of schedules. The discussion questions help participants share their faith and make real-life applications. The answer helps at the back of the book guide readers to new insights. The book also includes 5 one-hour Bible study lessons for groups with a set schedule. Links to short video introductions will help prepare and focus your thoughts as you study Ruth. You can see yourself in Ruth, whether you relate to her tainted background, the loss of a loved one, or the feeling that you don't belong. If you have ached for fullness or love, if you have wept or suffered anxiety in waiting, if you have struggled to love someone who is bitter or angry, then you can relate to Ruth. Single? Married? Widowed? She is all those things.But here's where you will certainly relate to Ruth-you need a Savior. This beautiful story of redemption is about grace. The grace Ruth received is the same grace we have through faith in Christ-it is the grace we are called to share with others.

In God's Orchard
In God's Orchard
In God's Orchard is an in-depth women's Bible study on the fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22-23. Many different places in the Bible refer to God as a gardener. As God's child, you are planted in his orchard—no matter where you are. Watered with God's Word, you produce fruit in your life—the fruit of the Spirit: "The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control" (Galatians 5:22-23). This book is a labor of love by six passionate, Bible-loving women. They dive deeply into God's Word and invite you to learn with them about each of these fruits of the Spirit—what the Bible says about them, the impact sin has on them, how Jesus demonstrated them perfectly, and how God's gospel message fosters their growth in your life. Each of the nine Christ-centered Bible lessons features practical applications and discussion questions with room for you to write down your thoughts. You can work through these fruits of the Spirit privately or in a Bible study group with other Christian women. Sink your roots deep into God's Word and yield a fruitful harvest in your life through this women's Bible study!

Magic in the Roman World
Magic in the Roman World
Using in-depth examples of 'magical' practice such as exorcisms, love rites, alchemy and the transformation of humans into divine beings, this lively volume demonstrates that the word 'magic' was used widely in late antique texts as part of polemics against enemies and sometimes merely as a term for other people's rituals. Naomi Janowitz shows that 'magical' activities were integral to late antique religious practice, and that they must be understood from the perspective of those who employed them.
