A Jesus-Shaped Life: Audio Bible Studies: How Biblically Sound Theology Deepens Our Relationship Wit

When many of us hear the word theology, we conjure up visions of stuffy old guys in dark clothing scratching a pen across paper (or maybe a quill across parchment!) and assume that it's not for us. But at its most basic, theology is just words (logos) about God (theos). Conversations, if you will, about the most important part of our lives-our good, loving, and grace-filled God. With her signature style and humor, bestselling Bible teacher Lisa Harper invites you into seven life-changing conversations about the God we so love. Lisa makes theology fun, practical, and applicable, explaining how academic-sounding concepts are actually daily realities that make an enormous difference in how we live our lives, how we treat other people, and how we understand our own relationship to our Creator. Dive deep into the word of God in this seven-session Bible study and learn how your theology is your Jesus-shaped life. If you want to grow closer to God and take a more active role in your community of faith, it's time to take your understanding of God to the next level with sound theology rooted in Scripture. Let Lisa be your (very entertaining) guide! The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, this audio Bible study includes high-quality, live audio sessions from the author that cover important Bible-based topics. 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.

The Promise and Power of Easter: Audio Bible Studies: Captivated by the Cross and Resurrection of Je

The only thing that truly changes the trajectory of any of our lives is realizing the magnitude of what happened on the Cross. The first person who officially acknowledged the deity of Jesus by referring to Him as the Son of God wasn't one of the disciples or someone He healed, it was the Roman military officer who presided over His crucifixion. That centurion never got to watch our Redeemer heal a leper or walk on water. The only thing he watched Jesus do was die. And it changed the trajectory of his life because he realized only the King of all kings would choose to lay down His crown and be crushed on behalf of His people. Since that Good Friday over 2,000 years ago, Christianity is the only religion in the world whose belief system centers around a Savior who suffered. We're the only ones who place our hope in a deity who's so radically compassionate, He was willing to die so that we could live. Many of us live knowing a lot but living a bit like we don't know much at all. The difference between performance and devotion is rarely defined by outward behavior. The only thing that truly changes the trajectory of any of our lives is realizing the magnitude of what happened on the Cross. We can all relate to the lengths we go to for those we love. And our Redeemer went to lengths that leave us in awestruck gratitude. That's what this study is about. Taking the time to remember the reality and result of our unconditional transformative redemption! When your heart becomes more cognizant of what took place on that old, rugged cross everything changes. In this four-week Bible study taught by Christine Caine and Lisa Harper, we will remember together what led up to the cross and join hands in awesome celebration of the restoration we received when Jesus rose again. What a gift to reflect and rise together in the Lord's power and glory!

The Promise and Power of Easter: Audio Bible Studies: Remembering the Reason for Jesus’ Resurrection

This is a wake-up call to WONDER . . . peel off your emotional Spanx and become re-gospeled by the truism of Immanuel-of God. With. Us. Remember when your eyes used to well up with tears whenever you sang, Hark the herald angels sing, glory to the newborn king that first Sunday after Thanksgiving? What happened to the starry eyes we used to have only for Jesus? One of my mentors, pastor and professor Scotty Smith, wryly observes that far too many Christ-followers are like Cinderella with amnesia. We've forgotten that the supernatural scaffolding of our belief system isn't a human construct but is instead a divine love story wherein the King of all kings willingly sets aside His scepter in Glory, shrugs into a suit of skin, and condescends to be born in a cattle trough in order to capture our fickle human hearts. If a warm embrace and a double shot of caffeine got married and had a baby, it would be this Bible study because participants will be both enveloped in the Living Hope of Christ Incarnate and compelled to share that hope with other image bearers!

Overextended and Loving Most of It: The Unexpected Joy of Being Harried, Heartbroken, and Hurling On

Would you consider your life stretched to the limit? Are you a burn-the-candle-at-both-ends kind of gal with lots of room for improvement when it comes to creating margins for rest? But you actually love it and wouldn't want it any other way? Well, so does Lisa Harper. In her humorous and packed-with-biblical-wisdom way, Lisa shows us that it is possible for a frazzled nature to be glorifying to the Lord. Every late-night conversation with a hurting friend and each precious, adopted child needing a little extra tender loving care-exhausting, yet imperative, ways to be extensions of the gospel. In each of these vignettes illustrating Lisa's overextended life, we learn that even in the middle of our own pure motives and hectic schedules, it is only by resting in God's sovereign mercy that we are able to keep risking our hearts to serve his people and fulfill the callings he has placed on us. Real life . . . abundant life . . . godly life is about loving Jesus and the people he allows us to rub shoulders with well-which means some days you'll be stretched emotionally and physically. You'll feel overextended. Thankfully God will expand our hearts and calendars to accommodate the calling. He is in the business of supplying us with new mercies every morning . . . new candles to burn, for more lives needing his light.

Believing Jesus: Are You Willing to Risk Everything? A Journey Through the Book of Acts

Are you truly willing to risk everything? In Believing Jesus, Bible teacher and author Lisa Harper retraces the steps of the apostles in the book of Acts, while throwing in a few of her own crazy adventures along the way. The disciples didn't have much of a road map after Jesus ascended to heaven, but God's grace and spirit filled in the gaps as they moved forward. It required their willingness to risk everything to establish a new community that would change the future world. As a regular speaker on the Women of Faith® tour, Lisa has earned a reputation as a true theological scholar and hilarious storyteller-not necessarily in that order! Best-selling author and pastor Max Lucado calls Lisa one of the "best Bible tour guides around." Believing Jesus will highlight both of Lisa's strengths as she tackles every chapter of the Book of Acts with biblical wisdom and modern wit. Lisa keeps it real, telling stories on herself and pointing readers back to Jesus, the only one who can truly lead.

Luke: Audio Bible Studies: Gut-Level Compassion

PERFECTION NOT REQUIRED Many of us believe that we aren't good enough to meet other people's expectations. Maybe you can't wrap words around why, but lurking beneath the surface of the carefully curated façade you present in public, it's there. Being missed and marginalized by others moves us to assume we're not quite good enough for God either. The great news woven throughout the Gospel according to Luke is that perfection is not a prerequisite for a deep and personal relationship with Jesus. In fact, this riveting account reveals that Jesus is especially fond of ragamuffins in need of a safe place to lean in and linger! Join Lisa Harper in this audio Bible study of a literary masterpiece that doesn't celebrate the elite, but embraces the outliers, outcasts, and overlooked! Sessions and Run Times: - Outliers, Outcasts, and the Outrageous Mercy of God (26:00) - Worship in the Waiting (25:00) - Uphill Glory (29:00) - Gut-Level Compassion (27:00) - The Tender Heart of Obedience (32:00) - A Beautiful Unbending (31:00) - A Most Radical Restoration (31:00) - A Tale of Two Rooms (31:00) The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience.

Women of Faith® speaker and author Lisa Harper relates from experience - life can be uncertain, sometimes even scary. But with a witty twinkle in her eye and a Bible in her hand, she describes what it's like to find real security in the arms of a Savior who doesn't just notice us but who moves heaven and earth on our behalf. Part diary, part devotional, Stumbling Into Grace weaves hilarious and poignant stories from Lisa's own life with intimate and transformational encounters from the life of Christ.

'Lisa's fine grasp of Scripture and love for the Lord make her a trustworthy teacher, yet we learn from her own hard-earned lessons as well. She speaks and writes from a place of understanding, as she clings to God's hand, giving us the privilege of stumbling into grace with her.' -LIZ CURTIS HIGGS, best-selling author of Bad Girls of the Bible
