Transformed Relationships Transformed Character Transformed Service Transformed Influence NavPress has returned to its roots of publishing resources that assist believers on a biblically based journey with Christ. For that reason, we have established a strategy and differentiator that we call Discipleship Inside Out.™

Establish

Engage

New believers need guidance in establishing their relationship with God and others. Living in communities of grace and truth enables believers to discover and define who they are and how they should live.

Becoming disciples of Jesus begins a lifelong transformation process and pursuit of Christlikeness. Believers will engage in spiritual disciplines that will profoundly affect their character, behavior, and decision-making process.

Equip

Empower

Transformation requires tools and support to help believers be equipped for service and find their place of ministry in the body of Christ.

By the power of God, believers can experience transformation of their whole being, resulting in healing, forgiveness, freedom, and increased influence among their family, friends, church, and community.

You can trust NavPress to provide resources that God can use to transform lives. Join us in our call to Establish, Engage, Equip, and Empower believers in their journey of faith. We’ve added the category for each new release to show how NavPress products fit into different Discipleship Inside Out segments.

Transforming Lives Through the Power of Story Deceived: Lured from the Truth Bored and frustrated by her parents’ traditional church, Vivian does what many teens are tempted to do: seek spiritual answers in other places. Tempted by the possibility of a relationship with a boy she’s admired from afar, she secretly begins to attend his cult-like church. Slowly but surely, she is lured into a religion that goes against everything she’s ever been taught. Blindly wanting to please her new boyfriend, Vivian abandons not only her faith but also her common sense. Before she knows it, she is isolated, afraid, and over her head in a religion that doesn’t want to let her go. According to cultclinic.org: • An estimated 5 to 7 million Americans have been involved in cults or cult-like groups. • There are approximately 180,000 new cult recruits every year.

KEY SELLING POINTS: • Fifth book in the popular SECRETS series by best-selling author Melody Carlson • Offers opportunities for honest discussion between students, youth leaders, and parents

Bible Studies for Guys: What Your Customers Have Been Asking For! Daniel

Peter

Living in a culture that was hostile toward having faith in God, Daniel and his friends could have conformed to society. Instead, they learned to take a stand through God’s power for what they believed. By studying their integrity and faithfulness, students will be challenged to evaluate their priorities and embrace biblical values, no matter the cost.

A brash, outspoken fisherman, Peter doesn’t seem like someone who would become a selfless leader. But God’s grace is limitless, and He can transform anyone’s character for His purposes. Peter equips students to rely on the Holy Spirit to change the world and share the gospel.

Gideon

KEY SELLING POINTS:

Gideon seemed insignificant, not someone others considered to be leadership material. The story of how God uses Gideon is a powerful example for today’s students who want to be bold, faithful followers of Christ. This character study helps them learn to live with integrity while growing spiritually.

• Can be used by guys or girls • Each lesson’s main passage is included within the text (primary versions: MSG, NIV84) • Includes leader’s guide • One or two application questions in each lesson • All three studies follow the same format and structure • Eight-week studies

The Bread and the Cup During the meal, Jesus took and blessed the bread, broke it, and gave it to his disciples: “Take, eat. This is my body.” Taking the cup and thanking God, he gave it to them: “‘Drink this, all of you. This is my blood, God’s new covenant poured out for many people for the forgiveness of sins.’ I’ll not be drinking wine from this cup again until that new day when I’ll drink with you in the kingdom of my Father.” M AT T H E W 2 6 : 2 6 - 2 9

The common elements of the meal, through Jesus’ words and prayer, became the signs of our eternal salvation. The deepest spiritual truths are represented in the everyday material of bread and wine. What does the Lord’s Supper mean to you?

I receive what you give to me, Lord Jesus Christ — your life and your salvation. As I receive it, I live in hope, anticipating the full life of the kingdom, even as I am participating in it now by your grace. Amen.

Don’t Leave the World the Same Way You Found It Upside Down Living According to Greg Laurie, Christians aren’t disturbing society’s status quo, not like they did in the book of Acts. In fact, he’s afraid that today’s believers are so worried about what the world thinks that they have forgotten what it is to take a stand for the truth. With clear insights and a straightforward message, Laurie walks through Acts to show how those who belong to Christ need to turn things upside down, in their personal lives and in the world; they need to embrace Upside Down Living.

Upside Down Living Bible Study: A Study from the Book of Acts In the book of Acts, established religious leaders considered those in the early church to be troublemakers. But the resurrected Christ was at work, shattering the darkness, healing lives, and saving souls with His powerful Holy Spirit. In this exciting study of Acts, Greg Laurie demonstrates why the mission of those early believers is still the mission for today’s Christians.

First published as Crisis in Caring, this book emphasizes how practicing true fellowship in the twenty-first century is directly linked to understanding and applying koinonia.

Study the Bible Book by Book 1 & 2 Samuel Things look bleak for Israel: Military attacks threaten from the outside while moral corruption destroys from within. But God will use three men to guide the nation through these bad times and into the next stage of His plan. The actions of Samuel, the prophet; Saul, the first king; and David, a man after God’s own heart, remain powerful examples of what we should and shouldn’t do as Christians. By studying the books of 1 and 2 Samuel, your customers will learn about the establishment of Israel’s monarchy, understand David’s rich spiritual legacy, and see how God is always sovereign, both in history and in the lives of individuals.
