"Unfortunately, many Christians find the book of Hebrews simply too daunting to study for themselves. In Hold Fast to Jesus, Elizabeth comes alongside and guides the reader carefully through this important part of Scripture in a way that is clear and significant. In her works, Elizabeth has always demonstrated a keen ability to take the deep, perhaps complicated, aspects of Scripture and lead one to a proper understanding of the biblical text. She demonstrates this ability again with Hold Fast to Jesus. The one who joins her on this journey will learn to navigate the text, to appreciate its implications for living, to marvel at the greatness of Christ, and to hold fast to the Word of the Gospel. All the while, Elizabeth's humble spirit and infectious love for Jesus will be evident. I commend this study to anyone who would love to have a more profound faith in and love for Jesus." --Dr. Randall McKinion, Asst. VP for Academics, Asst. Professor for OT, Cedarville University Whether we're sailing through rough seas or smooth waters, our only hope is to hold fast to Jesus. He is the anchor for our souls. In this study of the personal, passionate letter of exhortation to "go on to maturity," we'll consider deep doctrines including the new covenant, atonement, holiness, and eternal salvation. We'll worship the exalted Son of God who is our High Priest. We'll be warned not to drift away from our great salvation. We'll be encouraged to persevere through suffering as the great heroes of the faith did. The letter to the Hebrews was written over 1900 years ago and it was written to a group of Christians who were well aware of the Jewish practices of worship. They may have been considering returning to Judaism. That probably doesn't describe you today, but the main point of the letter is as vitally important now as it was then. Jesus is our great High Priest who has provided what no other priest of any religion ever could. The sacrifice of His sinless life makes forgiveness available to all who believe in Him as their Savior. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus and hold fast to Him. There is no one better!

The Book of Psalms contains many of our most well-known and well-loved Scriptures. We turn to them so often for comfort and to express the emotions of our souls. The Psalms also challenge us to live godly lives, to worship and adore our great and glorious God, to make the right choices in the midst of overwhelming trials, and to always trust the Lord. What a beautiful arrangement of poems, prayers, and praises God has given us! It's like an exquisite bouquet of flowers. It is a divinely inspired and well-crafted theological composition presenting a message with two key themes. The Psalms lead us to keep our priorities straight by telling us to meditate on God's word and to worship Him as King. I invite you to enjoy the bouquet that the Lord has prepared. Beginning with Psalm 1 and ending with Psalm 150, you will study selected psalms in the order of their placement in the Scriptures. Some are short, some are long, some are bright and full of praise, others express heartbreak and suffering. The Psalms prompt us to turn to the Lord and see that He is with us every moment of our lives, sovereign, faithful, loving, wise and worthy of all our devotion. They remind us that the Lord God is our great and glorious King who one day will reign on the earth. While we wait for Him, and when we see Him ... Come, let us worship the King.

An enthusiastically recommended study guide - for the seasoned student of Scripture or the beginner, for use on your own or with a group of any size! "This is a serious, well-researched, and strategically framed study guide which lets the text of the Gospel do the talking! It will help you discover for yourself the bottomlessly blessed and timelessly important message that the man Matthew, enabled by the Holy Spirit, intended his readers to understand - readers in his day and in ours. Is it in your heart to know your Savior better tomorrow than you do today - the life He lived, the work He accomplished, the heart that He has for His Father and for His own? No matter where you are on that pilgrimage, the Gospel of Matthew is key to the effort, and this study guide will be a delightful and enabling resource as you spend the time and make the effort to know Him better." Dr. Doug Bookman - Professor of New Testament at Shepherd's Theological Seminary, premier scholar on the life of Christ, leader of yearly study trips to Israel. Radical. Fanatical. Different. Is this the kind of disciple that Jesus wants? The Gospel according to Matthew tells us it is! What did Jesus say that caused men to abandon their jobs and embrace this extreme calling? And what did Jesus do that made people flock to be near Him? Why did Jesus befriend twelve men and mentor them for three years? Why did Jesus make enemies with religious leaders? Why did Jesus endure betrayal, torture, and death? What happened after He died? Who was this man and what would He say to you? This study guide of the gospel of Matthew will give you the answers to these questions and challenge you to a more passionate commitment to Jesus. You will learn from Matthew's eye-witness perspective, his proofs from Old Testament Scriptures, and his presentation of five Sermons of Jesus, just Who Jesus is, what He did, and what He said. Matthew's life was drastically changed from his encounter with Jesus. Yours will be too.The King sent out an invitation across the lands: "Follow Me."

And the Lord blessed Job. Does that surprise you? You probably know of Job's immense suffering, and how his first response to it was to say "the Lord gives and the Lord takes away. Blessed be the name of the Lord." As strange as it may seem to us, one of the Lord's blessings to Job was that he was chosen to show Satan that God is worthy of worship no matter what happens in our lives. And the greatest blessing of all for Job was experiencing an intimate life-changing encounter with the Lord. While the book of Job deals with suffering, it isn't about answering the question "why do people suffer?" It's about acknowledging that God is God. It's about humbly submitting to Him as the Holy One who is infinite in wisdom, power, justice and goodness. Would you be willing to take a journey with Job as he wrestles with pain, confusion, and temptation while trusting that his life is in God's hands? I invite you to join me in this verse-by-verse study where we will contemplate mind-boggling mysteries, amazing acts of God, and truth that is the anchor to hold us through any storm. The Lord promises blessing to those who belong to Him. Discover this for yourself as you study the book of Job.
