Mark
Part of the LifeChange series
The Earliest Account of Jesus' Life! When Jesus came claiming to be the promised Messiah, the Jewish people were expecting a powerful warrior-king who would throw off their oppressors. Instead, He served the needs of the weak and suffered injury from the strong. Because He did not fit their ideal picture of a messiah, the people rejected Him.

Leviticus & Numbers
Part of the LifeChange series
The books of Leviticus and Numbers are not easy to study. For one thing, no book of the Old Testament presents a greater challenge to the modern reader than Leviticus, which requires imagination to picture the ceremonies that form the bulk of the book. But, it is important to understand the rituals in Leviticus because, first, they enshrine and teach values and ideas that a society holds most dear. Second, these values are foundational for understanding New Testament concepts of sin, sacrifice, and atonement related to the death of Christ. The book of Numbers recounts the long and eventful stretch of time spent by the people of Israel near Mount Sinai, where God prepared them for entering the Promised Land. But their journey is sidetracked for four decades spent in the wilderness.

Who Jesus Is
A Bible Study on the "I Am" Statements of Christ
Part of the LifeChange series
When you ask people today who they think Jesus is, you will get a variety of answers. Some will reply that Jesus was the greatest teacher who ever lived. Others will say he was a wonderful moral example, a prophet, or even the Son of God. But when you ask these same people whether they have ever read the first-century accounts about Jesus' life and ministry in the four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), many will admit that they have not read them. So their views of Jesus often reflect who they want him to be, not who he really is.
In this LifeChange topical Bible study we look at eight amazing "I Am" statements Jesus made about himself. Each one reveals that the Messiah and Savior is far greater and more powerful than anyone could have imagined. Jesus wants every Christian to know who he is and what he has done for us. This LifeChange topical Bible study helps you achieve that goal.

Social isolation has such a devastating impact because, as Larry Crabb stated, God created us for community. A pandemic and the rise of social media has amplified this isolation. This LifeChange study guides you towards genuine Biblical community.
Every session includes:
• Questions, interpretation, and application of a passage to the topic
• Personally focused "Your Response" question
• "For Further Study" section that gives readers another passage to explore around the topic
• Callouts that include language study, historical context, and illuminating quotes from commentaries
