Ashamed Teen Girls Bible Study Book With Video Access (Student/Study Guide)
$19.99Shame is a lie. Jesus is better.
We all have a shame reel-a constant loop of memories of things we’d rather forget, whether from things we did or things done to us. Shame keeps us trapped in an endless cycle of striving and failing. Shame keeps us focused on ourselves and what we’ve done rather than Jesus and what He has done-what He’s still doing within us. We can go from feeling like we’re doing just fine on our own to being absolutely, hopelessly devastated by shame. But we weren’t made to live like this. Jesus moves us from death to life, from despair to hope, and from shame to freedom. Together, we can discover the truth about shame, about us, and about how Jesus makes everything better.
In this 6-session study from Scarlet Hiltibidal, teen girls will discover how to move beyond shame to the joy-inducing, peace-producing thrill that comes from a relationship with Jesus. We were made to live in the light because Jesus experienced shame in our place.
Features:
*Six teaching videos featuring author Scarlet Hiltibidal, approximately 6-8 minutes in length
*Leader helps in the back of the book to guide questions and discussion with small groups
*Personal study segments in the Bible study book to complete between group sessions
*Biblically rooted and gospel-centered
*Six group sessions with 5 days of personal study each weekAdd to cart1 in stock

Faith Beyond Youth Group
$24.99Most typical youth ministries today produce nice, obedient kids who behave themselves–and then leave the church and the faith. Even those who remain struggle to extend their own faith beyond youth group. They seem like “good kids,” but their lives and decisions outside youth group aren’t oriented towards Jesus. Clearly that is not our goal. So what are we doing wrong? And how can we better serve the unique needs of the most anxious, adaptive, and diverse generation in history?
If you’re tired of youth ministry that fails to change lives, it’s time to change youth ministry. Building on two decades of the Fuller Youth Institute’s work and incorporating extensive new research and interviews, Faith Beyond Youth Group identifies the reasons youth ministry often fails both short-term and long-term, and offers five ways adult youth leaders can cultivate character for a lifetime of growing closer to Jesus rather than drifting away. It shows leaders how to cultivate trust, model growth, teach for transformation, practice together, and make meaning so that the teenagers can become adults who hold fast to the truth 24/7 and boldly live out a robust faith in a watching world.

Next Gen Faith
$18.99When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth? (Luke 18:8)
Jesus’s question is one that should bother all Christians. Increasing numbers of people don’t go to church. Only 4 percent of those born between 1998 and 2013 have a biblical worldview. The rest don’t believe in the Bible, absolute moral truth, or a loving, all-powerful Creator. They don’t even believe in the concept of sin.
We have failed. We have not taken to heart the biblical admonishment to pass on our faith from one generation to the next.
Yet youth pastor Jeff Grenell believes that once American teens and young adults discover that God is even more amazing than Stranger Things, “they will be hooked.”
He notes, “Our world is familiar with the supernatural, but the church is foreign to it. If this changes in the church today, we may have one of the best apologetic tools to reach this generation because the supernatural is in the DNA of the church and its message. Most American teenagers and youth culture are drawn to the spectacular and the spiritual.”
Jeff has written Next Gen Faith: 12 Spiritual Practices for Youth in an effort to reverse the godless trend among the next generations. Written in the vein of the classic Christian book The Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster, Next Gen Faith is designed to provide key steps for spiritual formation for both Christian adults who work with youth as well as teens and young adults themselves.
