9/8/16 2:11 PM

LENT 2017 You have the vision; we’ve got the details. Beginning with Ash Wednesday, you prepare hearts, minds, services, and even the church sanctuary itself to welcome the celebration of Easter Sunday. The very nature of Lent is anticipation and preparation; so in a sense, church leaders must ‘plan for the preparation.’ How will you enhance your sanctuary? What items will you need to accommodate extra attendance, special features, and worship? Will you have any recognition ceremonies during this time? What studies and gifts are needed during this season? What can you provide to encourage personal study beyond the church walls?

Whatever you have in mind, Cokesbury has a solution and can help you fine-tune the details.

author insights

For Christians, the beliefs expressed in the Apostles’ Creed are foundational. In this book we’ll consider those beliefs and begin a conversation about what Christians believe, why they believe it, and why it matters. My hope and prayer is that, long after you close this book, you’ll continue to ask, to answer, and to believe.

Affirming Our Faith at Lent and Easter FOR YOUTH

NEW Creed What Christians Believe and Why Adam Hamilton When we have questions about life’s meaning and purpose, finding the answers takes more than simply typing a few words and pushing a button. Adam Hamilton believes that powerful answers to many of our complicated questions are contained in the Apostles’ Creed. In Creed, he explores what Christians believe, why they believe, and why it matters, leading readers to confront and examine their own core beliefs. The book is part of a six-week churchwide program for Lent, Easter, and beyond that includes a Leader Guide, DVD, youth and children’s resources, and a Leader Kit. Abingdon Press.

CHURCHWIDE This Lent, look at your mess through the eyes of Christ NEW Restored Finding Redemption in Our Mess Tom Berlin Sometimes our lives are in such disarray we can’t envision a way through to redemption. But when we look at the mess through the eyes of Christ, we not only find redemption, we can clearly see spiritual restoration. In Restored, author Tom Berlin encourages us to reflect and meditate through our own brokenness, showing us that it is only when we focus on the cross as a place to surrender control that we can leave our mess and find true redemption. This 6-week study uses Scripture, devotional tools, and the writings of Ignatius of Loyola, John of the Cross, St. Augustine, John Wesley, Evelyn Underhill, and others, and is a perfect Lenten study for youth or adults.

Description

Adam Hamilton believes that powerful answers to many of our complicated questions are contained in the Apostles’ Creed. This study explores what Christians believe, why they believe it, and why it matters, leading readers to confront and examine their own core beliefs.

The Gospel of John includes some of the loftiest and most-loved verses in all the Bible. Join Adam Hamilton and experience a season of spiritual growth and life-changing renewal as you read the entire Gospel of John, exploring its major themes.

Travel with Adam Hamilton as he retraces the life and ministry of Jesus Christ in this 40-day study using historical information, archaeological data, and stories of the faith. Use during Lent and Easter or any time of year.

Participants will journey with Adam Hamilton through the last 24 hours of Jesus’ life from the Last Supper to Gethsemane, to the trial and to the Crucifixion.

Author Tom Berlin encourages us to reflect and meditate through our own brokenness, showing us that it is only when we focus on the cross as a place to surrender control that we can leave our mess and find true redemption.

A multi-component, all-church study featuring pastor and author Mike Slaughter bringing his edgy, powerful style to bear on the topic of coming to terms with the real Jesus, the rebel Jesus. Perfect for Lent and Easter.

Explore Jesus’ final words from the cross. Each chapter includes the biblical account followed by a story written from the viewpoint of a witness at the cross.

Description

Explore God’s saving and redeeming love through a sevenweek study of the Scripture readings for Lent and Easter. Key Bible readings call us to embrace God’s salvation and the new life offered to us through Christ. Based on the Revised Common Lectionary Scriptures for Year A.

A unique, six-session Lenten study that provides biblical, social, and historical analyses of six classic African American Spirituals.

We can’t see the wind, but we can witness its results. The Hebrew prophets communicated God’s vision of justice and faithfulness and we see the result of their prophecies in Jesus. This study calls us to turn our attention to the issues of justice in today’s world.

Experience Easter through the eyes of the everyday people who witnessed the triumphal entry, saw Jesus drag his cross to Calvary, and cried through Christ’s last words. They saw one of the greatest events in human history, and yet their stories are often overlooked.

How can the cross shed light on what we do in worship and why—not just in the Lenten season but in every season? Through daily readings, Indermark urges us to focus on the cross, its imprint on how we worship as a community, and how it transforms our discipleship.

View Easter through the eyes of Mary of Bethany, who prepared the way before the cross; Mary, the mother of Jesus, who was addressed from the cross; and Mary Magdalene, who proclaimed Christ’s resurrection after the cross.

Examines the symbols surrounding Christ’s crucifixion, revealing the claims of the cross and asserting that if they are true, then Christianity itself is true. The supporting evidence either makes the cross the single biggest hoax of all time, or the hope of all humanity.

Help children approach Lent in a meaningful way NEW Make Room A Child’s Guide to Lent and Easter Laura Alary; Ann Boyajian, illusrations While other books tell the Passion narrative for young readers, this unique book integrates themes of hospitality and self-giving that echo Jesus’ ministry—his entire life. Make Room invites children to wonder about the story and to encounter Lent with all their senses. Simple activities become acts of justice and kindness, part of a life of following and imitating Christ, and a way to make room for God in our lives and in the world around us.

CONFIRMATION

The only new confirmation program approved for The United Methodist Church

A new approach to nurturing faith in teens

NEW Confirm

Student Guide:

Your Faith. Your Commitment. God’s Call.

Includes devotional readings and questions for journaling.

Confirm is a new confirmation and discipleship resource. Confirm treats confirmation as more than a decision. Instead, it is the beginning of a conversation about what it means to be a Christian: living out your faith, your commitment, and God’s call.

Family Guide:

Confirmation leaders and churches will find practical help for nurturing sustainable faith in the lives of teenagers in a way that values their faith formation process. Confirm is easy to follow and customizable; it can be used in any church setting and with a wide variety of schedules. It provides students with the basic beliefs of a theologically sound, United Methodist faith while engaging them in creative and thought-provoking activities to help them internalize what they’ve learned.

Provides an overview of the confirmation process and equips mentors with suggested relationship-building ideas, and more.

Cokesbury. Coming in December.

Director Guide: Provides direction for creating an effective discipleship path for teens during confirmation at your church.

Teaching Plans: Includes fully customizable, easy-to-follow lesson plans for 39 confirmation class sessions.
