Os estudantes de hoje são constantemente atraídos para uma vida de confusão e crenças superficiais. Mas Jesus Cristo os chama para algo maior do que tudo o que este mundo pode oferecer. Ele oferece a vida eterna que inclui um relacionamento vivo com Deus, um compromisso radical com a verdade, e uma vida de amor, compaixão e propósito. Uma vida radical que importa tanto agora quanto na eternidade. Conte Comigo guia os estudantes através de todo o Evangelho de Lucas e do convite ousado de Jesus para segui-Lo diariamente, obedecê-Lo fielmente e confiar Nele completamente. Os capítulos se concentram em oito elementos importantes do discipulado, desde o estudo das Escrituras até compartilhar Jesus com outras pessoas. Os estudantes serão desafiados com questões como: • Eu valorizo os relacionamentos certos? • Tenho uma perspectiva saudável das minhas coisas terrenas? • Permito que tentações e pecados bloqueiem meu crescimento espiritual? • Tenho um plano para manter minha vida intencionalmente fundamentada em Cristo? Incluindo perguntas de reflexão e guias de debate, este livro pode ser usado facilmente por leitores individuais ou em estudos em grupo. Os estudantes devem sentir-se inspirados a realizar um estudo mais profundo das Escrituras e desafiados a levar a sério o chamado de Cristo ao discipulado em suas próprias vidas. Assim como Jesus escolheu jovens seguidores no primeiro século Ele convida a geração de jovens de hoje a segui-Lo agora. Conhecê-Lo, amá-Lo e fazê-Lo conhecido. Entregar-se e colocá-Lo em primeiro lugar em todas as áreas da sua vida. Fazer parte da mensagem Dele e da Sua missão às nações. Conte Comigo vai encorajar os estudantes a ouvirem o incrível chamado de Jesus e a viverem corajosamente sua fé todos os dias.

Jesus started His ministry saying, “Come, follow Me,” and finished it by saying, “Go, make disciples.” Between these two challenges, His followers learned they could trust Him completely with every area of their lives. From the writing team behind The Love Dare and The Battle Plan for Prayer, and the movie producers of The Forge and War Room, comes an exciting new resource for anyone who desires to grow spiritually and become an on-fire, all-in follower of Jesus. Have you ever been personally discipled? Do you desire to walk closer to Jesus but wish someone would show you how? How can your faith become a thriving relationship instead of a religious duty? What are the keys to assurance of salvation, abiding in Christ, praying effectively, overcoming trials, and deeply loving others? Packed with 52 topical chapters—ideal for reading daily or weekly—and presented with refreshing clarity, Devoted to Jesus is designed to help both new and mature believers grow together. This is a journey you’ll first want to experience yourself and then utilize to invest into others. They first learned to be His disciples, then helped others as disciple-makers . . . and so can you.

Today’s students are constantly pulled toward a life of confusion and half-baked beliefs. But Jesus Christ is calling them to something greater than anything this world can offer. He offers eternal life that includes a living relationship with God, a radical commitment to truth, and a life of love, compassion, and purpose. A radical life that counts now and in eternity. Count Me In walks students through the entire Gospel of Luke and Jesus’s bold invitation to follow Him daily, obey Him faithfully, and trust Him completely. Each of the eight chapters focuses on an important element of discipleship, from studying Scripture to sharing Jesus with others. Students will be challenged with: • Do I value the right relationships? • Do I have a healthy perspective of my earthly stuff? • Do I let temptation and sin block my spiritual growth? • Do I have a plan to keep my life intentionally grounded in Christ? Including reflection questions and discussion guides, this book can easily work for solo readers or group studies. Students should feel inspired to take on a deeper study of Scripture and challenged to take Christ’s call of discipleship seriously in their own lives. Jesus chose young followers in the first century and invites today’s generation of young people to follow Him now. To know Him, love Him, and make Him known. To surrender and put Him first in every area. To be a part of His message and His mission to the nations. Count Me In will engage students to hear the amazing call of Jesus and to boldly live out their faith every day.

Go from being a believer in Christ to a true disciple that is wholly surrendered to His ways and will.

"[A] masterly and often riveting account of King''s ordeal and the 1960 ''October Surprise'' that may have altered the course of modern American political history." —Raymond Arsenault, The New York Times Book Review (Editors'' Choice) The authors of Douglass and Lincoln present fully for the first time the story of Martin Luther King, Jr.''s imprisonment in the days leading up to the 1960 presidential election and the efforts of three of John F. Kennedy''s civil rights staffers who went rogue to free him—a move that changed the face of the Democratic Party and propelled Kennedy to the White House. Less than three weeks before the 1960 presidential election, thirty-one-year-old Martin Luther King, Jr. was arrested at a sit-in at Rich''s Department Store in Atlanta. That day would lead to the first night King had ever spent in jail—and the time that King''s family most feared for his life. An earlier, minor traffic ticket served as a pretext for keeping King locked up, and later for a harrowing nighttime transfer to Reidsville, the notorious Georgia state prison where Black inmates worked on chain gangs overseen by violent white guards. While King''s imprisonment was decried as a moral scandal in some quarters and celebrated in others, for the two presidential candidates—John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon—it was the ultimate October surprise: an emerging and controversial civil rights leader was languishing behind bars, and the two campaigns raced to decide whether, and how, to respond. Stephen and Paul Kendrick''s Nine Days tells the incredible story of what happened next. In 1960, the Civil Rights Movement was growing increasingly inventive and energized while white politicians favored the corrosive tactics of silence and stalling—but an audacious team in the Kennedy campaign''s Civil Rights Section (CRS) decided to act. In an election when Black voters seemed poised to split their votes between the candidates, the CRS convinced Kennedy to agitate for King''s release, sometimes even going behind his back in their quest to secure his freedom. Over the course of nine extraordinary October days, the leaders of the CRS—pioneering Black journalist Louis Martin, future Pennsylvania senator Harris Wofford, and Sargent Shriver, the founder of the Peace Corps—worked to tilt a tight election in Kennedy''s favor and bring about a revolution in party affiliation whose consequences are still integral to the practice of politics today. Based on fresh interviews, newspaper accounts, and extensive archival research, Nine Days is the first full recounting of an event that changed the course of one of the closest elections in American history. Much more than a political thriller, it is also the story of the first time King refused bail and came to terms with the dangerous course of his mission to change a nation. At once a story of electoral machinations, moral courage, and, ultimately, the triumph of a future president''s better angels, Nine Days is a gripping tale with important lessons for our own time.

The story of one of the Boston area’s most famous attractions, the Mount Auburn Cemetery, and how its founders and “residents” have influenced American culture When Mount Auburn Cemetery was founded, in 1831, it revolutionized the way Americans mourned the dead by offering a peaceful space for contemplation. This cemetery, located not far from Harvard University, was also a place that reflected and instilled an imperative to preserve and protect nature in a rapidly industrializing culture—lessons that would influence the creation of Central Park, the cemetery at Gettysburg, and the National Parks system. Even today this urban wildlife habitat and nationally recognized hotspot for migratory songbirds continues to connect visitors with nature and serves as a model for sustainable landscape practices. Beyond Mount Auburn’s prescient focus on conservation, it also reflects the impact of Transcendentalism and the progressive spirit in American life seen in advances in science, art, and religion and in social reform movements. In The Lively Place, Stephen Kendrick celebrates this vital piece of our nation’s history, as he tells the story of Mount Auburn’s founding, its legacy, and the many influential Americans interred there, from religious leaders to abolitionists, poets, and reformers.
