Finding Your Way Back to God
Are you looking for more out of life? Wanting more is really a longing to return to God—wherever your relationship with God is now. We all experience mile markers—or awakenings—as we find our way back to God. Journey through each of these awakenings and close the distance between where you are now and where you want to be. We want to find God, he wants even more to be found.

Awakening
Awakening helps you stir up your slumbering soul. You’ll discover how to break out of your season of dryness or get off to a great start either in the New Year or the next season in your life. Take your faith-walk from a “going through the motions” or “have to” mindset to the stimulating, fresh “want to” experience of enjoying God’s presence—24/7. Are you ready to experience an awakening?

It Is Written
This 31-day devotional, compiled from teachings by Pastors Robert Morris and Marcus Breechen from Gateway Church, focuses on the importance of having God’s Word in your everyday life. Each day reveals what the Word is—breath, bread, water, a sword, and a lamp—and how it applies to your life. As you read, you’ll be inspired to draw closer to God and hide His Word in your heart daily.

What Every Growing Christian Needs to Know
As a Christian, if you are not growing spiritually, you are regressing. Pastor Greg Laurie gives some time-tested advice on how to make sure you are moving forward in your spiritual life. Learn basic disciplines to keep you pressing on and growing in the faith, so that you can become a mature believer and help others in their spiritual walk as well

Seek First
Foundations are critical. They are also unseen. This five-week study is designed to be a simple, practical, hands-on tool to equip and motivate you as you disciple a new believer to become rooted in her faith.
We will be teaching out of 1 John to help enhance your own understanding of the book. You will assign homework to the women you disciple and have them read through 1 John, looking for different themes. By having them read and reread the same book, we are helping train new believers to interact with the text and ask deeper questions, thereby imparting important Bible study skills.
The study also includes practical illustrations that model different ways to teach some foundational lessons. We walk you through the steps to teach these important truths and encourage you to practice until you feel confident with the content.

The Bible Project
The Bible Project is committed to helping the whole world see the Bible as one unified story that leads to Jesus. The Bible Project is a non-profit animation studio that produces short-form, fully animated videos to make the biblical story accessible to everyone, everywhere. We create 100% free videos, podcasts, and resources that explore the Bible’s unified story.
The Bible is a divine-human book that speaks God’s word to his people. We believe it ultimately points us to Jesus, who has the power to change individuals and whole communities when we let the biblical story speak for itself.
