READ

In The Beauty Chasers: Recapturing the Wonder of the Divine, Timothy Willard asks if we can reclaim lives of wonder. The book encourages readers to see the world with new eyes by slowing down and finding beauty. Willard weaves stories together to show that, "Beauty can change you if you let it.”

STUDY

The Live Justly study is based in Scripture and practical action, considering both in six areas: advocacy, prayer, consumption, generosity, creation care, and relationships. The study comes in the form of a book and accompanies a ten-part video series, which can be used as a Bible study or to inform small-group discussions.
