Spring is often thought of as a season of newness and growth. We see green grass starting to sprout on our lawns and trees showing their first glimpses of fresh leaves. In the church calendar, it’s not only a time of reflection on what hinders us from growing but also a time to celebrate rebirth through the death and resurrection of Jesus.
We have some ideas of resources to help you and those you love grow in your understanding and relationship with Jesus during this new season.
God with Us is a unique and powerful telling of the Gospel—the biography and teachings of Jesus and the story of redemption—as the accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are woven together into a single narrative. God with Us crystallizes the story of Jesus, amplifies his life-changing message, and clarifies the gift of salvation. It is a reading experience unlike any other.
Immerse: Messiah is the first of six volumes of the Immerse: The Bible Reading Experience program. Messiah takes the reader on a new and unique journey through every book of the New Testament.

The end result is a Bible developed for the purpose of being read and understood, not referred to. Messiah is a new way to interact with God’s Word.
