More About for Our Living Life with Purpose Homeschool Bible Course
Uprising: What is the one thing that’s impossible for someone to change about themselves?
A person can change their appearance, their habits, their friends, their job . . . but they can’t change their character. Not on their own.
Each person was in God’s imagination before they were ever born. All the talent, gifting, and creativity they possess was placed in them by God Himself. Imagine the things someone could do, the impact they could have on the world, if they tapped into the dreams God has for their life!
In each of the six Uprising video Bible study sessions, Erwin McManus provides Biblical and practical teaching that will challenge homeschool teens to allow God to transform their character to be more like His. He illuminates the desperate heart cry of every human being—“I want to live”—and then serves as a guide on a quest to answer that cry.
Let Story Guide You: If your life was made into a movie, would you want to go see it?
Morning after morning, people get up to the same routine, the same job, the same chores, only to go to bed and repeat it all the next day . . . the next week . . . the next month. What would it be like to live the epic adventures we see in movies?
In this Bible study, Let Story Guide You, Donald Miller shares the important principles good storytellers use to make a story meaningful. He shows the power of storytelling being used in the Bible to teach significance and purpose. In his trademark humorous and personal style, Donald challenges students to become the heroes of their own story and make their lives count.
Chasing Daylight: Adventure awaits. Opportunity is everywhere. In his inspiring book, Chasing Daylight, Erwin McManus uses the Biblical account of Israel’s war with the Philistines (1 Samuel 13–14) and the characters of Jonathan and Saul to demonstrate the difference between living a life with purpose and adventure and living one of apathy and missed opportunity. Through this story, McManus artfully illustrates the eight characteristics of an adventurer’s heart, what he calls the “Jonathan factor.”
In this video Bible study series, Erwin uses powerful examples from his own life, along with fresh Biblical teaching to assert that God crafts divine moments specific to each person — priceless opportunities for homeschool teens to actively engage in God’s big-picture plan.
All the Places to Go . . . How Will You Know? Very rarely in the Bible does God command someone to “stay.” He opens a door, and then he invites a person to walk through it—into the unknown. And how someone chooses to respond will ultimately determine the lives they will lead and the people they will become.
In this six-session video Bible curriculum, bestselling author John Ortberg explores the countless open doors God places before people every day, teaches how to recognize them, and gives encouragement to step out in faith and embrace all of the extraordinary opportunities that await. Walking through that door just might make an eternal impact.
The Search for Meaning: What Matters: “Who am I?” and “Why am I here?” are questions everyone asks at one time or another. People search for meaning and belonging and want to have a purpose for their lives. This documentary walks students through four predictable stages of life that help sort out and process the quest for significance. Noted author Os Guinness reveals how various belief systems answer these questions and puts worldviews under the microscope to discern what is true and significant about life.
