Current Study: Hidden (Finding Delight in Your Life in Christ) by Allison Allen
You don’t have to perform anymore. You are hidden in Christ and need nobody’s favor.
We live in a world that tells you that visibility is value, and that recognition is your greatest reward. Even though we know it’s empty, so many of us are enslaved to this culture of performance and people-pleasing, earthly accolades and social media likes.
As a former actor, Allison Allen knows what it’s like to feel like she had to perform—not only for others but even for God’s favor.
In this video Bible study (video access included), you’re invited to let go of the pressure you feel and lean into the freedom of your inherent value in Christ. Throughout these sessions, you’ll spend time in the forgotten corners of Scripture and get to know some of the Bible’s most hidden, least remembered people.
What must they tell us about a life that doesn’t seek to be seen?

Study: “No Other Gods – the Unrivaled Pursuit of Christ” by Kelly Minter
- Often, idols are obvious—money, power, fame. But subtler idols can sometimes take the form of sweet loved ones, Instagramable interiors, and busy seasons of ministry.
- But if your heart is prioritizing any of those pursuits before God, they are taking up space meant for Him alone.
- In this 8-session study, learn to identify the functional gods you are serving daily and the lies they tell. Only when you learn to dethrone modern-day idols can you pursue a deeper, more meaningful relationship with Jesus.

Current Study: “It’s Not Supposed to Be This Way” by Lisa TerKeurst
Life often looks very different than we hoped or expected. Some events may simply catch us off guard for a moment, but others shatter us completely. At times like these, it’s easy to feel disappointed and disillusioned and to wonder about the reality of God’s goodness.
So what do you do when God’s timing seems questionable, his lack of intervention hurtful, and his promises doubtful?
Lysa understands this deeply. But she’s also discovered that our disappointments can be the divine appointments our souls need to radically encounter God. In this video Bible study, Lysa invites small groups and individuals into her own journey of faith. With vulnerability and honest humor, she helps us:
Learn how to better process unmet expectations and other painful situations.
Train ourselves to recognize the three strategies of the enemy so we can stand strong and persevere through unsettling relationships and uncertain outcomes.
Discover the secret of remaining trustful when God seems to give us more than we can handle.
Shift our suspicion that God is cruel or unfair to the biblical assurance that God is protecting and preparing us for what’s next.
Know how to encourage a friend and help her navigate hard realities with real help from God’s truth.
