God of The Way

"They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes. When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to meet him" (Mark 5:1—2). In Jesus' day, a great divide existed between the Jews and the Gentiles. The Jews considered themselves to be on one side-on God's side-and the Gentiles to be on the other. But time and again in Scripture, we find Yeshua Jesus traveling to the "other side" to meet with broken, lost, and desperate souls who needed God's grace. He crossed to other side when Peter, the disciple who promised to never forsake Him, did just that on the night that He was arrested. He literally crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee to find a man in the region of the Gerasenes, casting out a legion of demons from him and into a horde of pigs. Jesus went out of His way to meet with a woman from Samaria and told a parable of a Prodigal Son to demonstrate that no one is ever too far from God. Jesus then encouraged His faithful followers to take up the call to journey to the other side-as evidenced by Peter's willingness to meet with a Gentile named Cornelius and even stay in his home. In this six-session video Bible study, bestselling author Kathie Lee Gifford explores the stories of these important figures in Scripture who were willing to take the gospel to "the other side" so that all might learn of God's plan of salvation. Participants will discover that they are never too far gone or too far out of reach for God to find them, minister to them, and heal them. They will also be encouraged to follow the example of Yeshua Jesus and meet with those who are hurting... right where they are. 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.

God's love for you is the same yesterday, today, and forever. If you want to know about God, all you have to do is open the pages of his Word. The Bible reveals that God is a creator and lover of justice. He is all-powerful and merciful. He is wise and shines the light of his truth to guide you. He is a God of all people, for he sent his only Son into the world, so that "whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16). In this six-session video Bible study, bestselling authors Kathie Lee Gifford and Rabbi Jason Sobel explore some of the names for God used in Scripture and reveal what they say about his nature and character. You will discover-as so many of the men and women in Scripture discovered before you-that God's love, mercy, and care for his creation never changes. The God of his Word always keeps his Word... and he promises to always care for you. Each session includes clips from The Way oratorios, featuring Kathie Lee Gifford and other well-known personalities, that bring the story of Scripture to life with contemporary orchestral arrangements, powerful narration, and stunning visuals. This study guide includes: • Individual access to six streaming video sessions • A guide to best practices for leading a group • Video notes and a comprehensive structure for group discussion time • Personal study for deeper reflection between sessions

Trusting God When You Don't Know the Details The Bible reveals that God's plans are greater than our own and that he executes those plans in his own timing. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways" (Isaiah 55:9). Yet this often trips us up, because we want to know all the details of exactly how God is working and when he will deliver. In this six-session video Bible study, bestselling authors Kathie Lee Gifford and Rabbi Jason Sobel tell the stories of five people in Scripture-Abraham, Sarah, Moses, Joshua, and Mary, the mother of Jesus-who also wondered how and when God would come through for them. Each of them had to step out in faith and obey God without knowing the details of what would happen in their story. As you study their examples, you will discover what it likewise means for you to trust that God's ways are higher than your own-and what it takes to step out in faith. Each session includes clips from The God of the Way oratorios, featuring Kathie Lee Gifford and other well-known personalities, that bring the story of Scripture to life with contemporary orchestral arrangements, powerful narration, and touching visuals.

"She gave this name to the Lord who spoke to her: 'You are the God who sees me,' for she said, 'I have now seen the One who sees me'" (Genesis 16:13). There are times in our lives when we wonder if God truly sees us. When we are going through trials that seem to have no end... we wonder if God sees us. When we are faced with problems that seem to resurface again and again... we wonder if God sees us. When an illness we thought was defeated returns to impact our lives once more... we wonder if God sees us. And if God does see us in these situations... we wonder if he cares. In this six-session video Bible study, bestselling author Kathie Lee Gifford explores the stories of several important figures in the Bible who also wondered at times if God saw them in their plight. Through the stories of Hagar, Ruth, David, Mary of Magdala, and others, participants will discover that even when things seem to be at their worst, there is a God whose eyes are always on us, who has promised to never leave us or forsake us, and who gives us the power to do all that he has called us to do.
