Mark: Audio Bible Studies: In the Company of Christ

In 40 Days Through the Book: Mark, author and pastor Jeff Manion guides small-group members through the Gospel of Mark, revealing what the author words meant to his original readers . . . and how they apply to us today. Participants will be encouraged as they listen to Jeff's teachings and, through the accompanying study guide, challenged to read the Gospel of Mark on their own during the forty days in the study. The 40 Days Through the Book series has been designed to help believers more actively engage with God's Word. Each study encourages participants to read through one book in the New Testament at least once during the course of 40 days (approximately 6 weeks of meetings) and will provide them with (1) a clear understanding of the background and culture in which the book was written, (2) insights into key passages of Scripture, and (3) clear applications and takeaways from the particular book that participants can apply to their lives. Each study will be recorded in the author's place of residence and will highlight stories and applications that are relevant to his or her ministry in that area. Sessions include: - The Invitation (21:00) - Lessons for Disciples (20:00) - Hearing and Seeing (21:00) - The Way of the Cross (19:00) - Purchased by God (20:00) - A New Beginning (21:00) The Audio Bible Study series provides a unique learning experience.

Satisfied: Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption

Why does a contented, satisfied life feel so evasive? What deep hungers drive the reckless purchasing habits, out of control accumulation, and crazy consumer lifestyle for so many of us? And why are we often driven more by what our neighbors own than what will truly make us happy? For many in the recent economic financial crisis a series of lifestyle adjustments became necessary as hours were slashed at work and paychecks diminished. Vacations were simplified or canceled, even important purchases had to be delayed and any extras were put on hold. In the midst of paring back and cutting down there lies the critical question: Will a spirit of resentment and complaint invade our heart or can deep, inner joy prevail, even as our dreams seem to fade? Is it possible to live a deeply satisfied life as possessions and opportunities slip away? Followers of the Christ, living in the first century world, also wrestled with issues related to material longings. For Christians living in Ephesus, Philippi, and Laodicea, the tendency to find their identity through accumulation and comparison was alive and well. These powerful longings are addressed in numerous places in the storyline of scripture -- a storyline that points us toward material and financial sanity and the pathway to true abundance and deep satisfaction. Satisfied will draw richly from seven passages of scripture, exploring the way in which these messages were received by the original readers and the way these passages can transform the way we view wealth, accumulation, and ultimate contentment today.

The Land Between

In this unabridged audio download edition of The Land Between, author Jeff Manion uses the biblical story of the Israelites' journey through Sinai desert as a metaphor for being in undesired, transitional space. After enduring generations of slavery in Egypt, the descendants of Jacob travel through the desert (the land between) toward their new home in Canaan. They crave the food of their former home in Egypt and despise their present environment. They are unable to go back and incapable of moving forward. The Land Between explores the way in which the Israelites' reactions can provide insight and guidance on how to respond to God during our own seasons of difficult transition. It also provides fresh biblical insight for people traveling through undesired transitions---foreclosure, unemployment, parents in declining health, post-graduate uncertainty, business failure---who are looking for hope, guidance, and encouragement. While it is possible to move through transitions and learn little, they provide our greatest opportunity for spiritual growth. God desires to meet us in our chaos and emotional upheaval, and he intends for us to encounter his goodness and provision during these upsetting seasons.
