About

Discover the Path to Spiritual Growth
Jesus frequently used fruitfulness as a metaphor of growth and vitality in our faith. Just as a plant's fruitfulness reveals its health, there are spiritual characteristics that reveal our own growth and vitality.
But how do we get a life of fruitful obedience when we're exhausted, anxious, and busy? Jesus tells and shows us the way in his most famous sermon, The Sermon on the Mount. Much more than a list of rules–we discover that it's Jesus' vision of a good and fruitful life.
In their new eight-week Bible study A Fruitful Life, Ashley and Bryce Hales help readers dive deep into the Sermon on the Mount, and explore a life spent living and loving as Jesus did.
A Fruitful Life includes:

- Eight sessions for group or individual use that include access to video teaching
- Individual reflections for each day of the week for deeper study and sustained engagement
A Fruitful Life isn't just about reading Scripture; it's about fully engaging with the text and seeing how God's Word can transform our daily lives.

Reviews

"The Bible is essential for Christian spirituality. Central to the Bible are the teachings of Jesus. Among those teachings, none are more fundamental than the Sermon on the Mount. A Fruitful Life, by Ashley and Bryce Hales, digs deeply into these famous and powerful words, providing readers fresh insights for growing as followers of Jesus. I highly recommend it for church groups of all kinds."
Todd Hunter, author of What Jesus Intended
"The twenty-first century brims with peace and prosperity and technology the likes of which no generation has ever known. And yet many people feel dead inside. Maybe you are exhausted by the 'survival of the fittest' culture all around you and the numbness it leaves behind. If so, read this book. Ashley and Bryce Hales reintroduce us to Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, peeling through the familiarity of it to get at the shocking, joyous, life-upending power of it."
Russell Moore, editor in chief of Christianity Today
"I am always looking for studies to recommend to small groups that invite people into deeper community and individual time with God or devotionals which are diligent in engaging with the Scriptures and commend ways for us to practice our faith. In A Fruitful Life, Ashley and Bryce Hales give us just such a resource: an exploration of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount that is both invitational and challenging for Christians at any stage of their spiritual journey to live more fruitfully."
Bronwyn Lea, pastor and author of Beyond Awkward Side Hugs
