Small groups will be challenged to wrestle with the issues and grow sharper, stronger, and closer to each other—and to God—along the way.

RELENTLESS HOPE Extracting the Precious from the Worthless
BETH GUCKENBERGER SUMMARY:
I
n this nonfiction title, author Beth Guckenberger, known for her powerful storytelling, presents modern-day accounts of those who have felt confused, lost, hurt, abandoned . . . and yet have found hope. Hope in feeling the presence of God’s hand in their journeys. Hope in finding out they are not alone. Hope in knowing that God is writing the story of our lives—and the story’s not over yet. Beth’s compelling stories—interwoven with the wisdom of Scripture— will resonate with anyone seeking to find purpose in the midst of pain. This story-driven book:
• d elivers honest testimonies from unique voices whose stories are living and real—they don’t all have “happy endings,” but they all carry truth and hope.
• s peaks to all types of people who are hurting: parents agonizing over prodigal children; addicts; people enduring physical, mental, or spiritual suffering; and people who have lost something— parents, spouses, family, jobs, innocence, a chance . . . their way.
• b rings up challenging questions and sticky situations that we are often afraid to face.
• i s written by a compelling, dynamic storyteller who lives on the edge and exemplifies with integrity what it means to trust God in the midst of a myriad of challenges.

BETH GUCKENBERGER and her

Beth regularly speaks for church services and retreats, and enjoys communicating how God is moving in her life and ministry. She is the author of Reckless Faith (Zondervan, 2008).
EXCERPT: “There are far more sticky situations in my day than miraculous moments. I want to hear and see and experience challenges, difficulties, and setbacks and not immediately focus on the failure. Rather, I want to train my eyes to ‘extract the precious’ (Jeremiah 15:19, NASB)—the precious promises, truths, and intimacy God has written into the seemingly worthless pain, setbacks, and suffering we endure.” —Beth Guckenberger

UNLEASHED The Church Turning the World Upside Down
SUMMARY:
T
he church in the New Testament impacted the world—it changed culture from Jerusalem, to Samaria, to Judea, and to the ends of the earth. The early disciples turned the world upside down with their message, their lives, their commitment, and their passion. What about us? Have we become satisfied with the status quo—afraid to offend, almost apologetic of our presentation of Jesus’ being the only way to Heaven?

The contributing authors will use the book of Acts as a foundation to share powerful examples of how the church is fulfilling the revolutionary mission of Jesus and why the church today should be known for:
• its passion to dream (Acts 17:6). • its diversity and unlimited reach (Acts 1:8; 10:1-48). • its mind-blowing growth (Acts 2:41-47; 4:4). • its confrontation of culture (Acts 4:13-22). • its supernatural power (Acts 4:23-31). • its extravagant giving (Acts 4:32-37). • its willingness to risk (Acts 5:17-42). • its unswerving persistence to go and turn the world upside down (Acts 20:22-24).
EXCERPT: “The time has come for the church of today to be unleashed—to be empowered by the Holy Spirit, stand before religious and political leaders, and be fueled by a passion to reach the lost and influence the world for Jesus Christ.” —Dudley Rutherford

As a youth worker and mother of three teenagers, LYNN COWELL interacts with teens on a daily basis. While working with youth through one-on-one mentoring, leading teen small groups, and conducting teen conferences, she sees the struggles of teen girls who try to live without the truth of God’s passion for them as their foundation. Lynn is a part of Proverbs 31 Ministries’ speaking team, where she helps teen girls know and accept real love.
Featuring personal stories of the author that include her own frustrations and failings, as well as stories from teens who are experiencing the pressures, difficulties, and confusion so many young women face, this book will show girls how Jesus’ unchanging love changes absolutely everything. When a teen girl reads His Revolutionary Love, she will:
• h ear that Jesus loves her perfectly and unconditionally.
• k now that he doesn’t want her to just serve him; he wants her to accept his love and love him wholeheartedly.
• b uild a solid foundation for her faith that will give her the stability to live with purpose, acceptance, and confidence in who she was created to be.
• u nderstand how her relationship with Jesus, as well as peers and mentors, will guide her into healthy relationships with guys.
EXCERPT: KEY POINTS: • Reflection questions and journaling space throughout the chapters aid interactivity
• Group discussion questions available
Someone was pursuing me, but not in the way I expected it—not like what happens in the movies, at school, or at prom. Jesus wanted me. And when I didn’t respond right away, he came for me again. “Don’t be afraid . . . I’ve called your name. You’re mine . . . I paid a huge price for you. . . . That’s how much you mean to me! That’s how much I love you! I’d sell off the whole world to get you back, trade the creation just for you” (Isaiah 43:1, 4, The Message//Remix). Have you ever thought of Jesus caring for you like that?

ENDORSEMENT:
“My daughter, who wasn’t a good reader, started devouring the Meghan Rose series when she was in second grade. We’d begin reading together, but she was always so excited that she finished reading them on her own, and I have yet to hear one of the endings. My daughter is a much better reader now because of these books that catch her attention and inspire her to read.” –Rebecca V.
