A Purpose-Driven® Discipleship Resource Discover the key that can • strengthen beliefs to change behavior • lessen your day-to-day stress level • increase your security in an insecure world • help you raise your kids with a right perspective on life • increase your love for and trust in God Many Christians today live their lives, plan their schedules, and use their resources completely disconnected from what they say they believe. This spiritual disconnect is the cause of so much of the stress and problems in our lives. Foundations is a fresh, innovative curriculum about the essential truths of the Christian faith and how these truths are to be lived out―in your relationships, your character, and your work. Rather than just teaching doctrinal knowledge, this course shows you how to apply biblical truths and implement them in your everyday life. 1. The Bible 2. God 3. Jesus 4. The Holy Spirit 5. Creation 6. Salvation 7. Sanctification 8. Good and Evil 9. The Afterlife 10. The Church 11. The Second Coming From Saddleback Church Proven and refined over ten years, Foundations is designed to help bring believers to maturity, strengthening them to live a purpose-driven life. Here is what some who have taken this course have said: “Every Christian and seeker should attend. Wow! What a super foundation” “I felt reassured about my lifelong beliefs” “I’ve never learned and unlearned so much.” “I thought I knew about the Bible and God. Now I know that I didn’t feel close to God because I didn’t know him very well.” “The small group atmosphere made me realize I wasn’t the only one that didn’t know all this stuff.” “Everyone needs this―more than once.”

Foundations Teacher's Guide Volume 2

Everything Around, Above, and within You Will Take on a New Perspective When You See through the Filter of God’s Worldview A teaching guide and PowerPoint® sessions from Saddleback Church that teach the doctrines of faith Foundations is the basic doctrine study taught at Saddleback Church and is a key component of their “second-base” (maturity) Purpose Driven strategy. Its goal is to help Christians develop a Christian worldview―the ability to see everything through the filter of God’s truth. Too often, doctrine is presented as boring, complicated, not relevant to one’s everyday life. However, a Christian worldview based on God’s essential truths has a lifelong impact on the way people look at everything around them, above them, and within them. This study lays a foundation for this new perspective and provides benefits for the rest of life. The Foundations study will: · Lessen the stress in everyday life · Reveal the God-given potential for growth in each individual · Increase a sense of security in an often troubling world · Provide parents with tools for helping their children develop the right perspective on life · Help each person fall more deeply in love with the Lord · The twenty-four sessions in this kit cover the biblical perspectives about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, Revelation, Creation, Salvation, Sanctification, Good and Evil, the Afterlife, and the Second Coming. · The complete kit includes two separate teacher's guides, one participant’s guide, and a PowerPoint® CD-ROM with slides for each session. Each item is also sold separately.

You have a plan for the rest of your life. God has a plan for the rest of your life. Are they the same? Kay Warren had a plan. Together with her husband, Rick Warren, author of the megaseller The Purpose Driven Life, she planned that after her kids were grown, she'd travel the world, teaching and encouraging couples in ministry. It was a good plan. But it wasn't what God had in mind for her. In a startling wake-up call, Kay discovered the shocking realities of the AIDS pandemic in Africa while reading a magazine. 'I want to use you!' she heard God say. That began the struggle---first to avoid God's call and then to surrender herself to God. If you've ever struggled with knowing and doing God's will, this book is for you. With raw honesty, Kay goes straight to the heart of the matter: the bottom line is surrender. Will you trust God? Kay Warren took that step, choosing to dangerously surrender to God. That decision transformed her life, marriage, and future. She invites you to do the same. You'll benefit most by discussing this book with others. A Readers' Group Discussion Guide is provided in the back of the book. Additional help can be found at www.kaywarren.com.

Choose Joy: Because Happiness Isn't Enough

In April 5, 2013, Kay Warren's life changed forever. That was the day she lost her son Matthew to suicide. Most of us will not face anything so devastating, but every single day we will face something that threatens our attempts to live with joy. Health problems, financial worries, marriage issues, loneliness, unresolved relational conflicts, anxiety about our nation or our world, stress over how our kids are turning out. In those moments, how do we choose joy over fear, apathy, or despair? In Choose Joy, Kay shares the path to experiencing soul-satisfying joy no matter what you're going through. She helps you send your spiritual roots deep into the soil of God's love so that you can develop convictions and certainties about him that will become the source of your strength when happiness isn't enough. "The only thing that would allow me to survive the loss of my son was what I knew and believed about God . . . and joy," says Kay. Let her lead you toward true and lasting joy in your life.
