What is it about Psalm 23 and its writer that ministers to us? This book delves into the life of David, the author of Psalm 23, and explores what makes him the "man after God's own heart." Despite his flaws and struggles, David’s deep longing for intimacy with God offers powerful inspiration. His vulnerability, from shepherd boy to king, mirrors our own yearning for a closer relationship with the divine. Through David’s humanity and brokenness, we also see a foreshadowing of Jesus, the ultimate Shepherd who laid down His life for His sheep.

Choosing trust over anxiety on our way to the promised land. The Exodus narrative is the story of Israel's redemption from Egyptian slavery. And even though God performed amazing miracles to liberate them, the children of Israel constantly struggled and grumbled on their way to the promised land. This book invites you to consider their stories and learn from their experience in the wilderness. Can we trust God to be our Redeemer, Guide, Protector, and Provider? After listening to this book, your answer will be a resounding yes!

Every day we have choices to make - some more important than others. When Jesus began His ministry, He had to make some very important choices as well. He had to choose a team who would be loyal followers while He was here on earth and carry on His ministry when He left. Who qualified? Astonishingly, Jesus chose the most ordinary of men. Men who were broken and of dubious character. Simple men with little formal education.
Radical Discipleship studies the lives of these flawed men who were purposely chosen for an unparalleled task. You will be amazed at how their lives were turned upside down by the God of EXTRA-ordinary grace, and how that EXTRA-ordinary grace is available to you today. Because He didn't just choose them - but us too, and because we too are the recipients of the extraordinary grace of God, He ignites in us an uncontainable passion that spills into every aspect of our lives. Therefore, we find our worth, identity, and purpose at the feet of Jesus. Now that's radical!

In the book of Revelation, the last chapter in the story of Redemption, God has drawn back the veil on a beautiful masterpiece - one that exceeds all our expectations and surpasses our wildest imaginings. It is the portrait of His immeasurable love, a revelation of Christ as the victorious Lamb. Some chapters of human history and our daily lives get pretty scary. Perhaps you feel you can't take it anymore, you are too disheartened to continue. But don't give up yet. Come to the last book of the Bible, the final chapter in the story of salvation, and discover for yourself that Jesus wins!

From the time sin first appeared in the Garden of Eden, God had a plan to save us. Throughout the Old Testament, the Scriptures point forward to one important event, the birth and ministry of our Savior. Matthew's Gospel declares that Jesus fulfills each promise made. But he goes even further, to establish from the very beginning how the promises of the Gospel are not just for one small group - but for all who believe!

Sometimes love and suffering require extraordinary and unexpected measures. Because sin separated us from God, we all need to know, deep within, that we are forgiven. The Gospel of Mark is a very encouraging book because it reminds us that, no matter what we are going through today, the final victory has already been attained by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. And THAT, my friend, is GOOD NEWS!

Luke uses the nouns Savior and Salvation more than any other Gospel writer. The human race was buried under sin, with no possibility of external survival. Help could only come from above. God designed a plan to rescue us, and Jesus came to fulfill it! But who could be saved? The strong, the learned, the religious? Luke's Gospel is filled with joy and excitement, because salvation has been secured for all! Just like the shepherds on the hills of Bethlehem, you, too, can trade your fear for MEGA JOY!

From the beginning - with God, yet separate - was the Word. John introduces Jesus immediately as God. He reveals a new reality, something deeper than we normally view with our physical eyes: the reality of the Divine as revealed in Jesus - God became flesh. John wants us to see beyond Jesus' humanity because when we see Him in this light, we will behold His glory and recognize the beauty of what He accomplished for us all.

When was the last time it happened to you? Perhaps your husband sent you flowers for no reason at all, your child turned around and blew you a kiss from the steps of the school bus, or your parents sent you on a cruise, just because.
This is the story of our Creator-Redeemer and the greatest "love surprise" of all time. It surprised Adam and Eve. It surprised the deceitful serpent. It surprised the adulterous woman of John 8. It surprised the Pharisees. It surprised the disciples. It even surprised the heavenly angels. And it continues to surprise us today.
"The deceiver thought that he had outsmarted God! He never expected that love would win. Perhaps, humans themselves thought that they were beyond redemption! But, 'where sin increased, grace abounded all the more' (Romans 5:20)."
Maybe you've heard the story before. Maybe this is your first time. Either way, when you behold the unexpected rescue of God's children, you will be amazed at His love - at His passion for His children, and you will be surprised by love.
