After forty years of wilderness, the time for God''s promises to be fulfilled has finally arrived. However, victory had to be claimed through trust and obedience. By God''s grace, redemption was made accessible, but it was up to Israel to access it. The Book of Joshua offers spiritual keys for the warfare that comes with leaving what''s behind and moving forward into our blood-bought redemption. Whether we are to arm ourselves with testimony or remain obedient during uncertainty, we must ultimately lean on God for the power to overcome. There is no end to how much darkness this world will wield against our walk with Christ. Nevertheless, we must know that God has already won the war on our behalf. In the same manner that Joshua marched around the walls of Jericho and faced the threats of kings, we, too, must be strong and courageous in the face of our own challenges.This study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience, including:The study guide itself—with discussion and reflection questions, video notes, and a leader''s guide.An individual access code to stream all video sessions online.

All too often, we feel paralyzed by our situation, unsure of how to move forward, and stuck in habits and patterns that we can''t seem to break. We don''t recognize the wisdom and authority that God has given to us and are unwilling to give up our comfortable lifestyle to sacrifice anything for His Kingdom. As a result, we tend to lead apathetic, weak, and disengaged lives as followers of Christ.God wants so much more for us! He has given us the authority and the ability to truly be victorious in this life. But attaining that power will mean overcoming certain roadblocks the enemy puts in our path to discourse and distract us from our purpose. The key to unleashing God''s power is thus learning how to identify these roadblocks and implement spiritual strategies to overcome them. This is the goal of the Unleashed Bible Study—to show believers how to not merely survive but thrive in this life.Sessions include:Unleashing Kingdom Praise and TruthUnleashing Kingdom Power and ...

In Everyday Revolutionary, pastor and bible teacher J.D. Greear draws on insights from the book of Daniel to show how followers of Jesus are called to live a "revolutionary" life that often runs counter to the ways of the world. He reveals how disciples of Jesus are instructed to embody certain core identities and how those identities lead to them exhibiting five core practices in their everyday lives. These identities and practices—when truly embodied in this way—enable every follower of Jesus to live the life that he desired them to lead in spite of their circumstances or culture in which they live.Employing solid biblical truth, compelling stories, and a prophetic voice, J.D. reveals the roles and responsibilities that can make every person a revolutionary disciple—a faithful follower of Jesus in a hostile culture. Participants will discover how to put these key practices into action:How to fulfill the creative purpose for which they were madeHow to pursue excellence in whatever they endeavor to doHow to reflect holiness with the little things in a critical worldHow to display reconciliation with equity and fairnessHow to advance God''s mission in a global and technological ageEveryday Revolutionary provides the perspective and encouragement that every follower ...

In the Footsteps of the Etruscans describes the archaeology of the countryside within a ten km radius of the small town of Tuscania near Rome, throwing light on the unrecorded lives of the generations of farmers and shepherds who have lived there. What was the character of prehistoric settlement prior to Etruscan urbanization? How did urbanization shape the lives of the ''ordinary Etruscans'' working the land, hardly ever addressed in Etruscan archaeology? What was the impact on these people of being absorbed into the expanding Roman empire and its globalised economic structures? How did the empire''s collapse and the subsequent emergence of the nucleated medieval village affect Tuscania''s rural population? The project''s 7500-year ''archaeological history'', from the first farmers to those grappling with globalisation today, contributes eloquently to our understanding of how Mediterranean peoples have constantly shaped their landscape, and been shaped by it.

Is your heart unsettled by the chaos of the world? Are you heavy-laden with bad moments, mad moments, or anxious moments? Today, rest in God''s self-giving love and leave all your troubles at the foot of the cross.In the He Chose the Nails Bible Study, Max Lucado observes that the last moments leading up to Jesus'' death were not left up to chance. God chose the path; he selected the nails. Our Lord planted the trio of crosses and painted the sign.

So much more.In this Easter season study, Max will help you:Experience Lent as a time not to just give up something, but to prepare to receive good gifts from God.Take comfort that Jesus understands everything you face in this life.Receive the grace of Christ''s work for us and cooperate with God''s work in ...

An artist’s uniquely personal journey across AmericaIn the nineteenth century, ornithologist and painter John James Audubon set out to create a complete pictorial record of North American birdlife, traveling from Louisiana and the Florida Keys to the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the cliffs of the Yellowstone River. The resulting work, The Birds of America, stands as a monumental achievement in American art. Over a period of sixteen years, recording his own journey in journals and hundreds of original paintings, renowned French watercolorist Denis Clavreul followed in the naturalist’s footsteps.In the Footsteps of Audubon brings together some 250 of Clavreul’s stunning watercolors along with illuminating selections from Audubon’s journals and several of his paintings. With pencil and brush in hand, Clavreul turns his naturalist’s eye and painterly skill to the landscapes that Audubon encountered on his travels, and to the animals and plants that Audubon depicted in his art. A passionate ornithologist, Clavreul sketches birds in the wild with rare dexterity, bringing them vividly to life on the page. He documents his encounters along the way with people who live with nature, many of whom are passionately engaged in preserving it, drawing on his insights as both a biologist and ...

In the Footsteps of a Roman Legion  - Walking the Via Egnatia (2021)On a blistering September morning in 2016, intrepid friends in their sixties – Kim and Pat – set off on foot from Durrës, Albania towards Istanbul, Turkey. Tracing the route of a Roman road, the Via Egnatia, they dedicate their endeavour to raising funds for refugee relief. Owing to a guidebook that overstates amenities, the trek becomes more challenging than expected. As they negotiate hurdles, test their endurance, and encounter human smugglers and feral dogs, an indomitable sense of humour, a personified GPS, and an imagined Roman legionnaire see them through daily adventures.

'Superb... Beautifully written and thoroughly researched' - Guardian A beautifully illustrated travelogue, chronicling the life and work of one of the world greatest poets. Du Fu (712-70) is one of China’s greatest poets. His career coincided with periods of famine, war and huge upheaval, yet his secular philosophical vision, combined with his empathy for the common folk of his nation, ensured that he soon became revered. Like Shakespeare or Dante, his poetry resonates in a timeless manner that ensures it is always relevant and offers something new to the modern generation. Now, in this beautifully illustrated book, broadcaster and historian Michael Wood follows in his footsteps to try to understand the places that inspired Du Fu to write some of the most famous and best-loved poetry the world has known. The themes he wrote about – friendship, family, human suffering – are universal and in our troubled times are just as relevant as they were almost 1,300 years ago.

As a result, there is peace on earth and goodwill toward all people. Our atmosphere is one of happiness and beauty.The prologue and epilogue of "The Man Who Wrote in the Tower" are written by an unidentified narrator. In Book I, William ("Willie") Leadford, who was "third in the office staff of Rawdon's pot-bank [a facility where pottery is created] in Clayton," leaves his employment at the same moment that industrial Britain is devastated by a slump brought on by American dumping. Leadford, who was converted to socialism by his friend "Parload," attributes his miserable living situation on racial injustice. The exact date of the incident is unknown.Leadford awakens at the beginning of Book II, when he is intensely aware of the beauty in the world and has a kind and giving attitude toward other people.

Examining how the Cuban Revolution dictated Latin American politics and U.S.-Latin American relations from the 1950s to the present, this fourth edition engages with the question: is the Cuban Revolution dead?Fidel Castro''s ascent to power and the revolution he led in Cuba not only catalyzed a wave of revolutionary activity; it also set off a wave of reaction that led to widespread military dictatorships and severe repression culminating in state terrorism. Both revolution and reaction were essentially over by 1990, and yet long-term effects of the Cuban Revolution continue to influence the modern era.Latin America in the Era of the Cuban Revolution and Beyond covers the events of the Cuban Revolution itself, the resulting radicalization of Latin American politics, the United States'' responses to the threat of communist expansion in the region, and rural and urban guerrilla warfare that were spawned by the Cuban Revolution. It also addresses the very different but incomplete revolutions in Peru, Chile, and Nicaragua, the rise of state terrorism in response to the threat of revolution, and major developments after 1990.
