Horizontal Jesus

Discover how your vertical relationship with God is connected to horizontal relationships with others.

Loving God is vertical love. Loving others is horizontal love. Jesus showed His disciples how these two loves are intertwined in practical ways. While our relationship with God is based on faith alone, He warns and encourages us to see that the way we treat people affects our experience of Him. In this study, you'll learn how to apply biblical principles drawn from several one-another passages in Scripture. In doing so, you'll reap blessings in your vertical relationship with God.

At the age of 27, J. D. Greear became the pastor of a 40-year-old neighborhood church. In the years since, that congregation of four hundred has grown to over five thousand in weekly attendance.

Letters of the Revelation

Reorient your life to the mission of the church, using the warnings, challenges, victories, and failures of the seven churches of Asia.

Revelation is perhaps the most studied and discussed book in the Bible. It begins with letters to seven different churches of the first century. This study explores the challenges, failures, expectations, and victories of those churches. It gives believers a better context for end-times theology and reveals the cultural implications for the churches of those times and for churches today. Despite our best appearances, modern churches have shortcomings. Yet there is still time to awake from spiritual lethargy and deadness and embrace the mission God has for His church today.

Momentum

Most Christians want to make real, noticeable progress in their walk with Christ. We long to forgive, to have a pure heart, and to find peace, but we just don't know how to get there. It's time to get unstuck and build momentum toward a more godly life. The understanding and strength we need to pursue holiness are available through the path Christ laid out for us in the Beatitudes. Find out what it really means to be poor in spirit, to be meek, and to mourn, and discover how those qualities will help you live a life in which God's blessings are abundantly clear and present.

The Power of God's Names

Because of God’s depth of character, He has a variety of names to reflect His different capacities of relating to humanity. God is called Elohim when referenced as the all-powerful Creator. When you need provision, get to know the name Jehovah Jireh, which means God, the Provider. God has a name for any and every situation that you can find yourself in. Get to know the names of God through this six-session study because it is in knowing His character and His capacity that you will rest and discover both peace and power in His covenant care.

Ready to Launch

Christian parents are not seeking mere behavior modification in their children but the growth of truly godly passions. "Training a child up in the way he should go" must be done intentionally, with the mind and heart of God. Based on Psalm 127, this 7-session study plumbs the wisdom of the Bible about the goals of parenting, the stages of discipline, the role of the church, and strategies to shape the heart toward the gospel.

Truth and Lies

At the sound of the word "temptation," we typically jump to the capital-letter temptations that show up as various addictions. But there are more subtle forms of temptation in the lies of success, false identity, and religiosity. The tendency is to trivialize or dismiss these, but their presence may be even more controlling—and more constant—than the usual suspects. Truth and Lies will help group members understand how God uses temptation to reveal and bring character out of them. That is, temptation is an opportunity to recognize and choose truth as Jesus did. This easy-to-lead, video-driven Bible study reveals how the enemy works, how to identify the Accuser"s schemes, and what Jesus teaches us through His temptations. The first three sessions take group members deep into the temptations of Jesus (Luke 4). Sessions 4-6 teach group members how to combat temptation
with Truth.

Unanswered

We live in a radically skeptical age. Tough questions are being asked about Christianity. And most believers are ill-equipped to provide the answers our culture and communities desperately need. Many in today's church do not know the Bible as well as they should and they struggle with their own "big questions" about the faith. This study provides precisely what the church needs today: tools and answers! It addresses several challenging topics, including mental health and suicide, paranormal activity, the resurrection, how we got the Bible, suffering, and why God is sometimes silent. The study will show you how to answer, how to explain, and how to respond in a deeply winsome and attractive way, as a thoughtful ambassador of Jesus. You will leave this study enriched, characterized by a thinking faith, capable to communicate confidently, and committed to escape the tendency to offer trite
answers to a skeptical world.

Unleashed

God's will is not just for us to be born again but for us to grow into spiritual adults. His intent for the Christian life is for it to be a process of growth in Christlikeness. With that in mind, believers must clearly understand how we can intentionally cooperate with the Holy Spirit's work to grow us into the likeness of Jesus. Acknowledging and utilizing the ways God uses different stages and seasons in our lives to shape us, the Unleashed study helps participants understand the lifelong process of spiritual growth and maximize God's work to conform them to the image of Christ.

Ephesians

Although Ephesians is one of the New Testament’s shortest books in terms of word count—only 6 chapters and 155 verses—it is perhaps the most applicable to today’s culture. In addition to the divine beauty and power of Ephesians, this epistle also provides Paul’s most direct address about the life of a disciple of Jesus. Paul conveyed his pastoral heart for the Ephesian believers by focusing on who they were in Christ. Specifically he addressed issues related to their new life, the community of believers, the pursuits of unity and holiness, and life’s challenges.

What Jesus Demands from the World

This study serves as an accessible introduction for thoughtful inquirers and new believers, as well as a refreshing reminder for more mature believers of God's plan for His Son's glory and our good.

Author Bio

John Piper was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to Bill and Ruth Piper January 11, 1946. When John and his older sister were still small, the family moved to Greenville, South Carolina, where John spent his growing-up years. His father was an itinerant evangelist, and his mother died in 1974 in a bus accident while visiting Israel.

In 1980, sensing an irresistible call of the Lord to preach, John became the senior pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where he ministered for almost 33 years.

As the overflow of a church tape ministry, Desiring God was founded in 1994, where John today serves as lead teacher. What started with tapes and John’s books, Desiring God has blossomed into an international web ministry with 12,000+ free resources and 3.5+million monthly users. Today, John serves as lead teacher for the ministry.

John and Noël have four sons, a daughter, and twelve grandchildren.

Knowing Jesus

Knowing Jesus will help you grow in your faith, excel in good works, and know Jesus more intimately.

Author Bio

Robby has served as Senior Pastor of Long Hollow Baptist Church Senior Pastor since 2015. He wasn’t always a pastor, though. For three years, he battled a drug addiction that ravaged his life. A $180 a day heroin and cocaine addiction forced him to steal $15,000 from his parents. After living without gas, electricity, and water for months, losing 8 of his friends to drug related deaths, watching 6 friends arrested, and completing two rehab treatments, Robby remembered the gospel that was shared with him by a friend in college and was radically saved on November 12, 2002.

Eight months later, David Platt, a seminary student and church member at the time, asked Robby to meet weekly for accountability, prayer, and bible study. For the next 2 years, David installed a passion for missions, expository preaching, and disciple-making in his life. He also encouraged Robby to go back to school to pursue theological education.

Robby completed his Masters of Divinity Degree in Expository Preaching in 2007 and his Ph.D. in Preaching in 2011 from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Today, Robby’s gospel conviction and evangelistic zeal drive him to passionately “make disciples who make disciples.”

In addition to his leadership at Long Hollow, Robby is also the founder of Replicate Ministries and the author of several books, including Growing Up, Firmly Planted, and Rediscovering Discipleship.

Robby and his beautiful wife, Kandi, have two young sons: Rig and Ryder.
