In a post-9/11 world, Christian. Muslim. Friend. lays out a path
toward authentic friendship between Christians and Muslims. Most
similar books either teach Christians to evangelize Muslims or else
downplay their Christian commitments. The author, who has lived and
worked among and befriended Muslims for more than fifty years,
offers readers a third way: holding onto the Christ-centered
commitments of their faith while cultivating peaceful friendship
with Muslims.
Discover what the Bible says about forgiveness and how to find the
peace that comes from embracing it. This video Bible study with
bestselling author and teacher Lysa TerKeurst (video streaming
included) is for those of you who have been hurt by others, who
feel stuck in a cycle of unresolved pain. Forgiveness is a major
part of the Christian faith. We know God commands us to forgive
each other. But, apart from simply saying the words, "I forgive
you," many of us have unasked questions about it: How does it work?
On our minds, souls, circumstances-what's actually happening when
we forgive? Why is it so important, and what's the difference
between forgiveness and simply moving on? When should I forgive,
and are their exceptions? How can I find healing for myself, even
if my act of forgiveness doesn't seem to change the person who hurt
me? These are just some of the questions explored in this
six-session video Bible study. Lysa will walk with you on a
step-by-step process-through biblical answers, deep empathy, and
the therapeutic insight that comes from her personal
experiences-toward the grace of forgiveness and the freedom from
the pain of past wrongs. This study guide has everything you need
for a full Bible study experience, including: The study guide
itself-with discussion and reflection questions, video notes, and a
leader's guide. An individual access code to stream all six video

Finding your heart’s true home - This 365-day devotional carefully unpacks the meaning of each part of the Serenity Prayer and how to apply it to our lives.
We live helter-skelter lives; each day we are pulled here and there by circumstances, both good and bad. We feel as if we are living at the mercy of events beyond our control. We long for peace, for a safe, serene and secure place where we can be at rest. In response to this search for peace, beloved author and minister Trevor Hudson reminds readers of the Serenity Prayer—a simple prayer that most of us know by heart:
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
This 365-day devotional carefully unpacks the meaning of each part of the prayer and how to apply it to our lives. As we let the Serenity Prayer show us how to live each day in friendship with our Lord and Creator, God’s gift of peace will grow and fill us to overflowing. “Seeking Serenity”—a practical suggestion at the end of each day’s devotion—will also help the reader put this prayer into practice, and begin to develop the clear life-focus that brings the peace our hearts long for.
Trevor Hudson is a Methodist minister, currently seconded to The Institute for Creative Conversations at the Northfield Methodist Church, South Africa. He exercises a ministry of teaching and lecturing around the country and internationally, and is the author of several books including The Serenity Prayer, Questions God Asks Us, Holy Spirit Here and Now, Friendship with God and Towards a Closer Walk with God.
It started with a simple question: How can we help them? It became
an international movement called NEGU: Never Ever Give Up. When
Jessica Joy Rees was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor at
age 11, she chose to focus not on herself but on bringing joy and
hope to other children suffering from cancer. During the ten months
she battled cancer, she and her family worked in the "Joy Factory"
(originally their garage) making JoyJars (R)-packages filled with
toys, games, and love for other kids with cancer. Jessie first
handed them out personally at the hospital where she was being
treated, but the effort blossomed quickly and there were soon
thousands of JoyJars (R) being distributed across the United States
and to over fifteen countries. Today, more than 100,000 kids have
received JoyJars (R), and they continue shipping each week to kids
in over 200 children's hospitals and 175 Ronald McDonald Houses.
Jessie lost her battle with cancer in January 2012, but her message
lives on in the Jessie Rees Foundation, which has become a beacon
of hope for families fighting pediatric cancer. Join the movement

Healing the Soul of a Woman delved deeply into Joyce Meyer’s personal story and the journey of healing for all women. Despite suffering from years of abuse, abandonment and betrayal by those closest to her, Joyce firmly believes a woman who has been deeply hurt by life’s circumstances can be healed, heart and soul. Her steadfast claim comes from living her own journey of soul healing, and from seeing so many women who don’t believe they can fully overcome their pain—or even know where to begin—find the guidance they need in the life-changing wisdom of the Bible.
Now, in this companion devotional, Joyce will guide you through 90 daily readings to encourage you through whatever obstacles may be holding you back from finding your true destiny. God can heal your pain, and He wants to do this in you. Let this devotional be an inspiration in your journey towards the wonderful, joyful future God has planned for you.

Know Your Enemy and Be More Than a Conqueror
In Your Battles Belong to the Lord, Meyer explains that while some
problems may result from a person's choices or circumstances, others
are rooted in the spiritual realm. Once you recognize the devil--who is
real and active in the world today--as your true enemy and the source
of many of your struggles, you can overcome them and live a life of
peace, freedom, faith and victory. When facing life's battles, there
are certain things you must do for yourself, such as:
- Diligently studying and applying God's Word
- Trusting Him
- Praying
- Maintaining a positive attitude and thankful heart
