Sinopse

A thoughtful and orthodox approach to the sexual identity questions of today's youth 
 
According to a recent Gallup Poll, 20.8% of Gen Z identify as LGBTQ+. As youth culture continues to evolve around sexual identity, Christian leaders, parents, and counselors need practical guidance for ministry and care. Emerging Sexual Identities offers a measured Christian response to the diverse sexual identities that are embraced by an increasing number of adolescents and explains how these identities function in the lives of today's youth. 
 
Mark Yarhouse and Julia Sadusky bring significant clinical and ministry experience to this timely resource. This comprehensive guide provides 
 
● clear explanations - help for understanding the new language and categories of sexual identities; 
● research-based insights - grounded in clinical experience and current data on Gen Z sexual identity trends; 
● practical tools - actionable strategies for pastors, youth workers, counselors, and parents; 
● Orthodox Christian perspective - maintains biblical foundations while offering compassionate engagement; 
● cultural context - explains how queer theory and cultural shifts have shaped today's identity landscape; 
● relational approach - focuses on accompanying youth through their personal stories and questions; and 
● real-world application - addresses actual controversies and challenges in ministry settings. 
 
The book focuses on accompanying, engaging, and ministering to teens navigating diverse sexual identities in the 21st century. 
 
Whether you're a pastor seeking to understand youth culture, a parent walking alongside your teenager, or a counselor working with LGBTQ+ youth, this book equips Christians with the wisdom and tools needed to minister effectively in today's complex sexual identity culture.

    Who Needs Christmas Why Easter...

    Who Needs Christmas: 
    The details of the Christmas story are amazing . . . and can seem a bit unbelievable. There is the angelic announcement to Mary that she will give birth to the Messiah. The dream from God that convinces Joseph to take Jesus as his own son. The angelic host who announces Jesus' birth to the shepherds. The madness of a king who tried to put an end to Jesus' life. 
    The narrative of Jesus' birth is miraculous. But as pastor Andy Stanley explores in this four-session video study (study guide sold separately), when you look at all the events in the Old Testament leading up to this point in time, the unbelievable story of Christmas becomes quite remarkable. 
    It was only "when the set time had fully come" that God sent Jesus into the world "that we might receive adoption to sonship" (Galatians 4:4–5). God sent Jesus to do what laws and regulations, judges and prophets, and exile and punishment could not accomplish. He sent Jesus not merely to deliver us from the penalty and consequences of our sin, but to actually break the power of the enemy and free us from our slavery to sin. 
    Through Christmas, we are reminded that even when it seems God is silent, he is always working. God sent Jesus not simply to be the Savior of the world but to be the Savior in our world. Through Christmas, we are reminded that God always keeps his promises to us. 
    Sessions include:The Story Behind the Story (20:00)The Author of Life (18:00)The Message of Christmas (23:00)Ready or Not . . . He Is Coming (18:00) 
    Why Easter Matters: 
    As believers in Christ, we all would like to say that we trust in God. We would all like to claim that we believe God has our best interests in mind and that obedience to him is the best pathway to finding joy, peace, and fulfillment in life. But the truth is that we often find ourselves actively resisting the very God in whom we say we trust.  
    This was true of people even back in the days of first-century Israel when Jesus walked the earth. In this four-session study (study guide sold separately), pastor Andy Stanley explores the lives of some of these individuals and reveals how the story of Easter became real to them when they found themselves caught up in the events of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. These characters include figures in the Gospels such as: Joseph Caiaphas, Judas Iscariot, the two criminals on the crosses next to Jesus, and the disciples and other followers of Jesus, who found their world turned upside down when the one they believed to be the Messiah was first put to death . . . and then rose again. 
    Sessions include:The High Cost of Following Christ (21:00)The Risk of Surrendering to God (24:30)The God Who Can Be Trusted (20:00)The Foundation of Our Faith (23:00) 
    Coordinating study guide available separately.  
    The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience.

These sessions will reflect the ambiance of the unique recording locations, immersing the listener into the teaching. While not required for the audio experience, these studies are designed to partner with the coordinating study guide, sold separately.

    What unanswered questions do you have about your life? Some of us struggle to find meaning, others wonder about identity, and all of us want to be loved. Your story―the events and relationships that define you―will guide how you answer those questions. But God has a story too. His story is about sending Jesus to this broken world to mend all that is broken. Author Robert Cheong, a pastor and counselor, helps readers connect their story to God’s story which will transform how they live and love.      We all have our own back story―our sometimes unconscious beliefs―that have been shaped by our families, relationships, and life experiences. Our stories shape the personal narratives we live out: “I am not loved.” “No one cares for me.” “I have to be better than everyone around me.” “How I look is the most important thing about me.” Our back story guides us in how we relate to God and others. But are these beliefs true? And how are they affecting our lives today? Cheong helps readers unpack their story and learn to live out of God’s new story. Readers will discover how to retell their story out of who God is, what he’s done, and the call to love him and others.       Learn how the dynamics of creation, fall, redemption, and consummation shape our present struggles, confirm our future hope, and ensure our ability to live in God’s power today. At the intersection of God’s story and your own, you’ll find that his love sustains you in your weariness, guides you in your confusion, and comforts you in your suffering. The story of his love will compel you to live for him.      Restoration Story can also be used alongside Cheong’s Restore: Changing How We Live and Love Study Guide.
