B224 

Discerning The Voice 

of God 

Vicki Craft 

If hearing God has seemed 

challenging, Priscilla Shirer 

invites you to explore a more 

intimate relationship with Him, 

one that can make hearing 

Him (His will, His heart, and His 

voice) your ongoing experience. 

Discover how you can listen 

with greater confidence, clarity, 

and discernment. 

WC226 

Myra Hartel 

Participants will gain an overarching 

understanding of the 

fundamental layout and meaning 

of God’s Word. Seamless 

helps replace insecurity that 

holds participants back with 

clarity and helps them move 

forward with confidence in their 

understanding of Scripture. 

Each week of study features key 

information that ties all of scripture 

together into the seamless 

truth of the gospel message. 

Experiencing God 


WC140-A 

Cecilia Stover 

Revised and expanded, this 

classic study guides readers to 

experience a relationship with 

God through which they come 

to know and do His will by 

learning to recognize when He 

is speaking. It also helps them 

understand the importance of 

His timing. 

B257

She’s Got Issues 

WC226 

Myra Hartel 

Some days living up to the whole 

good-Christian image seems 

impossible. You do the right 

things (well, most of the time), 

but you just don’t feel changed 

by your faith. Deep down, you’re 

still dealing with the ordinary 

struggles (control, insecurity, 

comparison, fear, anger, and unforgiveness) 

that hold you back 

from living free and loving well. 

The good news? You don’t have 

to “fix” yourself. You have access 

to the power of Christ. His power 

can transform your everyday 

weaknesses into your greatest 

strengths and gifts.

PARENT PATH 

PARENT PATH // SESSION 1 


Parenting: 14 Gospel 

Principles 


B253 

Dr. Ronnie Kent & Dr. James Kent 

Helping parents understand their 

role as they and their children 

are parented by God using the 

principles found in His Word. 

Paul David Tipp states in the 

intro, “This book is meant to give 

you vision, motivation, renewed 

strength, and the rest of heart 

that every parent needs. It is 

written to give you the big gospel 

picture of the task to which 

your Savior has called you.” 

Your Teenager Is 

Not Crazy 

B252 

Julie Pickering 

“What were they thinking?”; “This 

kid has lost his mind”; “Who is 

that alien in my child’s skin?” 

Parenting a teen through 

adolescence is tough! In this 

study, we will take a deeper look 

into the physical development 

of your teen’s brain and how 

to parent through this process 

using Godly principles. 

B254 

Raising Body-Confident 

Daughters 

Crystal Mills 

Our society idolizes the body, 

creating a body-consciousness 

in girls that can lead to eating 

disorders, image issues, and 

more. This book outlines eight 

biblically based conversations 

every mom needs to have with 

her 8 - 12-year-old daughter 

about becoming the body-confident 

young woman God created 

her to be.

Six Ways To Keep The 

Good In Your Boy 

Cynthia Venson 

A boy’s relationship with his 

mom during the formative years 

of 8 to 12 is vital to his future 

well-being. Learn how to help 

your son honor his body in a 

healthy way, get outside and play 

unplugged, and live out his faith. 

Tech Wise Family 

B252 

Harris Bell 

Making conscientious choices 

about technology in our families 

is more than just using internet 

filters and determining screen 

time limits for our children. It’s 

about developing wisdom, character, 

and courage in the way 

we use digital media rather than 

accepting technology’s promises 

of ease, instant gratification, and 

the world’s knowledge at our 

fingertips. And it’s not just about 

the kids.

OWENS’ HOME 


Kathy Owens // 601.310.1524 

Joy is the constant companion 

of the woman who trusts in the 

Lord. And while you can find it in 

friends, family, and circumstances, 

unfailing, persistent joy will 

only overflow from your relationship 

with Jesus. But how is 

it possible to hold onto such joy 

in times of sorrow? In this study 

by Lisa Harper, discover the 

redemptive side to Job’s story 

of suffering. Learn to use pain to 

strengthen your faith, point others 

to the gospel, and remember 

God’s providence will never take 

you to a place where His grace
