The Story group Bible study provides groups of all sizes the opportunity to discuss and apply what they experience during the 31-week The Story church campaign.
To understand the Bible, says Frazee, you need bifocal lenses, because two perspectives are involved. The Lower Story, our story, is actually many stories of men and women interacting with God in the daily course of life.
The Upper Story is God's story, the tale of his great, overarching purpose that puts the individual stories together like panels in one unified mural.
In 31 sessions, The Story video-based group study opens your eyes to God's master plan unfolding in the lives of the Bible's characters and in your own life.
Discover the heart of God's Upper Story, and the joy that comes as you align your story with God's. The Story Study Guide and DVD (sold separately) are designed for use by groups of all sizes, including small groups and Sunday school and adult education classes.
Designed for use with The Story Adult Curriculum Study DVD (9780310329527) sold separately.
How can you really THINK, ACT, and BE like Jesus? Pastor Randy Frazee believes there are thirty key beliefs, practices, and virtues that help define what Jesus referred to as the two great commandments: to love God and to love others. The Christian Life Profile Assessment Workbook is designed to help you asses where you are in relationship to these beliefs, practices, and virtues. Your responses will help you answer the questions how am I doing? and where do I need to grow? After you identify areas in which you would like to grow, the workbook provides suggestions and plans to help you realize that growth, such as reading books, memorizing Scripture, attending a seminar, engaging with a mentor, or taking part in a new spiritual discipline.
The Christian Life Profile journey is best experienced in a small group community that seeks to encourage, pray for, and hold each other accountable for progress. The goal is to take the profile again, one year later, to monitor the progress you make in your journey.
The Christian Life Profile Assessment Workbook is also designed for use alongside the Believe product group in order to enhance the church-wide experience.

In the book of Acts, we see God's church growing and taking shape--setting itself apart from the culture of hatred and excess surrounding it and becoming a revolution of hope to a broken world. Today, we are writing the last chapter of Acts in our own lives...

You'll trace the unlikely growth of the movement, as recorded in the book of Acts, from a marginalized man in Nazareth (Jesus), to twelve marginalized men from Galilee (the disciples), to the regions of Judea and Samaria, and ultimately to the ends of the earth--encompassing some 2.4 billion followers of Jesus today.

The Upper Story is God's story, the tale of his great, overarching purpose that fits all the individual stories together like panels in one unified mural.
In this new edition, Randy dives deeper in the Upper and Lower stories and shows how both perspectives will open your eyes to the richness and relevance of the Bible. Illuminating God's master-plan from Genesis to our daily lives, The Heart of the Story will encourage you to experience the joy that comes from aligning your stories with God's.

The development of meaningful relationships, where every member carries a significant sense of belonging, is central to what it means to be the church. So why do many Christians feel disappointed and disillusioned with their efforts to experience authentic community? Despite the best efforts of pastors, small group leaders and faithful lay persons, church is too often a place of loneliness rather than connection. In this revised and updated version of his bestselling book, Randy Frazee shows us how church can be so much...better--more intimate and alive. The answer may seem radical today, but it was a central component of life in the early church. First-century Christians knew what it meant to live in vital community with one another, relating with a depth and commitment that made the body of Christ a perfect metaphor for the church. What would it take to reclaim that kind of love, joy, support, and dynamic spiritual growth? Read this book and find out.
Presented by bestselling author and pastor Randy Frazee, the Believe Storybook shows children how they can think, act, and be more like Jesus. With 60 old and new testament stories from the Bible that showcase the themes, combined with captivating and dramatic illustrations by Steve Adams, children and adults alike will be inspired to become more like their savior and the person they were meant to be.
The Believe Storybook is part of the national church-wide program led by bestselling author Randy Frazee that shows children how they can think, act, and be more like Jesus.
Randy Frazee teaches you and your group how to confidently know what you believe and how to dig into Scripture to see for yourself the biblical foundation for those beliefs.
Think about the last time someone put you on the spot and questioned what this whole Christianity thing is all about. Maybe they asked you why going to church matters, or how you could possibly believe the Bible, or how God could really care if there's so much bad happening in the world.
Do you feel unsettled by questions like these?
In this 8-session, video-based Bible study (DVD/streaming video sold separately), you'll dig into eight key beliefs about a Jesus-follower's relationship with God and with others. And you'll explore the answers to essential questions like:

It's one thing to know the story of the Bible. It's another thing to live it.
Grounded in carefully selected Scripture, Believe, NIV is a unique spiritual growth experience that takes you on a journey to think, act, and be more like Jesus. Pastor Randy Frazee walks you through the ten key beliefs of the Christian faith, the ten key Practices of a Jesus-follower, and the ten key Virtues that characterize someone who is becoming more like Jesus. Every believer needs to ask these three questions: What do I believe? What should I do? Who am I becoming?
What you believe in your heart will define who you become. God wants you to become like Jesus - it is the most truthful and powerful way to live - and the journey to becoming like Jesus begins by thinking like Jesus. When you study the life of Jesus you will notice a distinct pattern: Jesus faithfully lived in a purposeful way. Jesus compared the Christian life to a vine. He is the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in the vine of Christ, over time you will produce amazing and scrumptious fruit at the end of your branches for all to see and taste. You become like Jesus.
Each chapter uses short topical passages from the New International Version (NIV) to help you live the story of the Bible. As you journey through this Bible, whether in a group or on your own, one simple truth will become undeniably clear: what you believe drives everything.

La Biblia nos enseña que la meta de la vida cristiana es llegar a ser semejantes a Jesús, tanto por nuestro propio crecimiento persona, como por el bien de los demás. La visión de Dios en cuanto a nuestra vida va más allá de nosotros mismos, porque es una visión de comunidad; de vivir juntos. Esto significa que la necesidad de asemejarnos a Jesús se halla íntimamente relacionada con nuestra manera de pensar, con nuestra forma de actuar hacia los demás y en última instancia, con el tipo de persona en el que nos estamos convirtiendo. Para comenzar este camino, necesitas captar la visión y saber hacia dónde se dirigen tus pasos.
En este libro, el pastor y autor Randy Frazee te ayudará a desarrollar una visión personal de tu crecimiento espiritual, y un sencillo plan para dar los primeros pasos. Después de presentar la historia de la Biblia y mostrar dónde se ubica nuestra vida en el cuadro general de lo que Dios está haciendo en el mundo, Frazee nos ayuda a identificar diez creencias básicas, diez prácticas básicas y diez virtudes básicas que nos ayudarán a pensar como Jesucristo, actuar como Él y asemejarnos más a Él. Identifica también algunas de las barreras y de las trampas que nos impiden crecer, destacando la necesidad que tenemos de tomar deliberadamente la decisión de caminar en la gracia, usando los medios que Dios nos da gratuitamente para que crezcamos y nos fortalezcamos en nuestra fe.
Think, Act, Be Like Jesus
The Bible teaches that the goal of the Christian life is to become like Jesus--for our own personal growth and for the sake of others. In other words, God's vision for our lives is about more than just ourselves, it is a vision for community--life together. This means that becoming like Jesus is intimately related to the way we think, how we act in relationship to other people, and ultimately the type of person we are becoming.
To begin this journey, you need to grasp the vision and know where you are headed. In this book, pastor and author Randy Frazee will help you develop a personal vision for spiritual growth and a simple plan for getting started. After unfolding the story of the Bible and showing how our lives fit into the big picture of what God is doing in the world, Frazee helps us to identify ten core beliefs, ten core practices, and ten core virtues that will help us to think, act, and become more like Jesus Christ. He also identifies some of the barriers and traps that prevent us from growing, highlighting our need to intentionally choose to walk in grace, using the means that God freely gives us to grow and flourish in our faith.
