Believing Jesus Bible Study Guide: A Journey Through the Book of Acts

Paperback | English

By (author): Lisa Harper

Journey through the biblical stories of the early Christian movement, and see what kind of wild adventures await those who truly believe Jesus.

Throughout the book of Acts, believing Jesus and what He said is the core value that marked every believer in the first church. Because they believed Jesus, the early Christians, including Peter, Paul, Stephen, and Timothy:

  • Consistently chose risk over comfort--even at the cost of some of their lives.
  • Persistently opened their homes and arms, giving all they had to the Jesus way.
  • Radically pursued Christ over culture--until they began to shape the culture around them.

In this eight-session video Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), Lisa Harper launches into the book of Acts to discover how Jesus'' command to spread the gospel changed the lives of those who believed and shaped the culture that surrounded the growing church.

At the end of this journey together, not only will you have studied this wild, adventurous, risk-taking book of the Bible; but you''ll see how God supernaturally orchestrated the events in Scripture to bring about the message of salvation that the early believers preached in the book of Acts.

Today, we are faced with the same decisions the early church faced. Will we, like them, truly believe the words of Jesus and allow them to transform every part of our lives?

Sessions include:

  1. The Declarations that Define Us - The book of Acts, an extension of Luke''s gospel
  2. Earth, Wind, and Celestial Fire - The Holy Spirit''s dramatic entrance
  3. Checkered Pasts Can Make Incredible Preachers - The powerful preaching of Peter and Paul
  4. What''s Mine Is Yours - Finding freedom in freely giving
  5. Loving More People, More - A challenge to welcome everyone
  6. The Need to Be ReGospeled - Even Peter and Paul made mistakes along the way
  7. Turning Your World Upside Down - A closer look at THIS Jesus: the one we''re following
  8. Bearing the Chain Because - Anything is worth seeing the gospel suddenly click for someone

About Lisa Harper

Rarely are the terms hilarious storyteller and theological scholar used in the same sentence much less used to describe the same person but then again Lisa Harper is anything but stereotypical! She''s been lauded as a compelling communicator whose writing and speaking emphasize that accruing knowledge about God pales next to a real and intimate relationship with Jesus. Her style combines sound biblical exposition and exegesis with engaging anecdotes and comedic wit. Pastor Max Lucado calls Lisa one of the best Bible tour guides around and author/actress Priscilla Evans Shirer adds Her God-given ability to not merely teach the Word but package it in a way that stirs the heart and calls to action is incomparable. When she speaks ears perk up! Lisa''s vocational resume is comprised of 30+ years of church and para-church ministry leadership including 6 years as the director of Focus on the Family''s national women''s ministry where she created the popular Renewing the Heart conferences which were attended by almost 200000 women as well as a decade of touring with Women of Faith where she spoke to over a million women about the unconditional love of God. Her academic resume includes a Masters of Theological Studies from Covenant Seminary and she recently completed her doctoral studies at Denver Seminary and is now working on her thesis. She''s been featured on numerous television and radio programs and is a regular on TBN''s globally syndicated Better Together show. She''s spoken at hundreds of national and international women''s events as well as in churches around the world. She''s also invested locally and has been leading the same weekly neighborhood Bible study for 15 years. And if you can''t find her teaching studying hiking or riding her motorcycle she''s probably in a coffee shop sipping a mocha and typing away on her computer because she''s also had 14 books published - including the recent best-selling devotional Life and has written and filmed 6 well-received Bible study video curriculums including Job: A Story of Unlikely Joy and How Much More: Discovering God''s Extravagant Love in Unexpected Places. However when asked about her credentials the most noticeable thing about Lisa Harper is her authenticity. During a recent interview she said I''m so grateful for the opportunities God''s given me but don''t forget He often uses donkeys and rocks! She went on to describe her greatest accomplishment to date as getting to become Missy''s mom through the miracle of adoption. Because in 2014 after a difficult journey and several adoption losses she finally got to bring her daughter home from Haiti and she''s been smiling even wider ever since!
