8 Lessons Knowing Jesus is the foundation - the very center - of our faith. Understanding who he is helps us understand who we are and how we should live. Paul's letter to the Colossian church is focused on Jesus. Wherever we find ourselves along our faith journey, we must continually focus on the foundation of our faith, Jesus Christ. Going through this study of Colossians is a special opportunity for you to dig into Paul's letter, absorb his unique insights, and take a fresh look at Jesus.

Sometimes in our lives, rounds of difficulties come our way. They hit like a boxer's left hook, making our legs weak and eyes blurred. This is the world we live in - a place where there is beauty, majesty, love, color, pain, and loss. So how do we navigate those times when pain becomes so loud we can't hear anything else? The book of Ruth provides a window into the lives of two women who are dealing with some really, really hard things. But in the midst of their struggles, God is there; he's got them in his hands. It may be hard to see, but he's in process of caring for their needs and providing a hope and a future. Ruth teaches us the old, but very true axiom that "life is hard, but God is good."

Conservative evangelical women are least likely to be trained in the areas of teaching and preaching. It's a tragic state of affairs, given the central value that our tradition places on the Scriptures. In this book, Jackie Roese examines the forces, both past and present, that have discouraged women from becoming trained. We'll discover that women are indeed called, gifted, and mandated in Scripture to herald the Word of God. The first half of the book will focus on encouraging women to become as fully equipped as our male counterparts, and to use their uniquely female voice in proclaiming truth to other women in various settings outside pulpit preaching. But encouragement isn't enough. Many women who already teach Bible studies, or who desire to teach, are in no position to pursue formal studies in a seminary. To that end, the second half of She Can Teach is dedicated to developing homiletic skills. Together we will learn how to study a passage, find the main idea, and build and deliver a biblical message. By the end of this book, the reader will be better equipped to proclaim truth, through her uniquely female voice, to her female audience.
