  Find Peace in God's Presence
  
  Anxiety is one of the most common struggles in our world today—but it doesn't have to define you. This six-session study will help you navigate fear, control, and uncertainty through the lens of Scripture. By examining the lives of biblical figures who exhibited different forms of anxiety—like Martha's need for control, Peter's fear of the future, and Naomi's anxious bitterness—you'll discover that God meets us in our struggles, offering peace instead of pressure.
  
  
  Designed for both individual and group study, this resource creates a safe space for honest conversations and points you toward lasting trust in God. In this study, you will:
  
  - Explore six Bible characters and their accounts of anxiety
  - Martha – Anxious Control (perfectionism and grasping for control in stress)
  - King Saul- Anxious Envy (insecurity and comparison, leading to destructive choices)
  - Jesus- Embodied Anxiety (physical and emotional distress in the face of suffering)
  - Naomi – Anxious Bitterness (resentment and grief shaping identity and perspective)
  - Moses – Anxious Avoidance (insecurity and fear leading to hesitation and excuses)
  - Peter – Anxiety About the Future (fear of the unknown leading to self-protection)
  
  - Discover how anxiety can be an invitation to deeper trust rather than something to fear.
  - Engage in Scripture-based reflection and group discussions that foster healing and honest community.
  - Learn practical, faith-centered ways to navigate worry while anchoring yourself in God's presence.
  - Experience the power of biblical encouragement and walk away with renewed peace and confidence in God's care.
  Whether you're struggling with anxious thoughts or walking alongside someone who is, this Bible study workbook will equip you with hope, biblical wisdom, and a deeper understanding of God's presence in your everyday life. This Bible study is perfect for small groups, church classes, or personal use.

  Manual for Suffering

  If God is so good and so powerful, why is there suffering in our world? Why do good people suffer so much? How can we find value and meaning in the midst of the fallenness of the world? 
  These questions—and many others—call for answers. The responses will determine our worldview and way of life. In the Manual for Suffering, the revealed, time-tested, and holistic answer from the depths of the Catholic faith is presented in all its beauty and power. 
  This manual will also provide spiritual aids to navigate and bear with hope and trust the suffering we encounter in our fallen world. 
  The first part lays out the biblical and theological foundations for suffering and the world’s fallenness, while the second offers aids for those who suffer, including passages and excerpts from: Scriptural texts; magisterial teachings; the writings of the saints; and traditional Catholic prayers and devotionals.  
  The purpose of this manual is to help those who suffer find the meaning, purpose, and value of suffering with and in Jesus Christ. It is intended for personal use and private reflection, and to share with those we love who need a guide and companion as they walk along the via crucis, the path of the Cross.

  The old axiom is true: people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. We find ourselves in a cultural moment where people simply want to feel seen, heard, and loved. The good news? A little kindness goes a long way. It's time for this overlooked and underappreciated fruit of the Spirit to get its due. 
   
   
   
  Ready or not, be kind. —From the Preface

  A balanced, accessible commentary for Spirit-filled Christians 
   
  The Spirit who inspired the authors of the New Testament is at work today around the globe, as evidenced by the explosive growth of pentecostal, charismatic, and renewalist movements; the number of adherents is now estimated at more than half a billion. 
   
  The Word and Spirit Commentary on the New Testament meets the need for a balanced, affordable, and accessible commentary series aimed at Christians who identify as Spirit-filled. Features include: 
   
  ● written by pastorally sensitive biblical scholars from the Spirit-filled tradition 
  ● paragraph-by-paragraph commentary 
  ● images, illustrations, and sidebars on pentecostal/charismatic/revival history or insights 
  ● engages biblical books in their ancient setting 
  ● emphasizes how we listen alongside ancient audiences for the Spirit's voice in our time and contexts 
   
  Series volumes explore how God works in the biblical texts and how Christians can expect God to work today, even if in new or culturally surprising ways. Series editors are Holly Beers, Westmont College, and Craig S. Keener, Asbury Theological Seminary. 
   
  In Romans, pastor, scholar, and speaker Sam Storms demonstrates the inseparable bond between Word and Spirit, awakening the pentecostal-charismatic world to the functional authority of the Bible and the evangelical world to the presence and power of the Holy Spirit.

  The Cost of Control - Why We...

  Sharon Hodde Miller

  We all wish we had more control. When our relationships are strained, when our bodies refuse to cooperate, when the future is uncertain, control promises security and peace. If only I were in charge, we dream. And this illusion seems more attainable than ever. Technology, science, medicine, and the internet all promise us ever-increasing mastery over our world. 
   
   
   
  The problem is, control is a "devil's deal." The more we seek it, the more it betrays us. In place of predictability, it gives us anxiety. In place of certainty, it creates more complexity. And in place of unity, it divides. It's not just that we cannot control things; it's that we break them even more when we try. 
   
   
   
  Thankfully the answer to our craving is not simply to "let go and let God." When our kids aren't listening, when our loved ones are self-destructing, or when our health is declining, we don't have to scramble after control, nor do we have to throw up our hands. Instead, God has given us a better tool. 
   
   
   
  In this culturally insightful and eye-opening book, Sharon Hodde Miller helps us discover the real power God has given us in Christ, to exercise influence over ourselves and our lives.
