Sport is one of the many evidences of a gracious God. It can unite people, sharing together in the enjoyment it brings. But it brings the challenge of proper stewardship under God, especially when working with young people. Are they being encouraged to use their gifts and time to God’s glory? Are you ensuring that they are living by God’s Word, rather than prioritising their sport? There is a lot to learn about how God wants us to live through sports – both on and off the field.

It's there when you look in the mirror.&nbsp;You'll find it roaming the halls of your school or workplace.&nbsp;It tucks you in at night and greets you as you roll out of bed.&nbsp;You'll read it in text messages & tweets.&nbsp;See it on Facebook and Instagram.&nbsp;It's in our conversations and is always rattling around in our minds. What is it?&nbsp;Insecurity. Insecurity is something all humans struggle with.&nbsp;Young and old, male and female, across the globe - insecurity has no boundaries.&nbsp;While it is a commonality among humanity, it doesn't mean it's something you have to live with. Insecurity is painful for many, but there is a greater fear to drown out this lesser one.&nbsp;Scripture tells us that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.&nbsp;It is in this greater fear, that we learn how to grow, live, and, possibly defeat, our insecurity.

Insecure: Fighting our Lesser Fears with a Greater One

Knowing that we have been saved by what Jesus has done rather than by what we have done is amazing. But how does this knowledge affect the way we live? What's the point in being good if we will be forgiven anyway? The Bible says that God's forgiveness frees us to live for him and through the Holy Spirit we can grow to become more and more like Jesus. Ligon Duncan and John Perritt dive into what that means in this short book.

On episode 1026 of "Ask Pastor John," John Piper was asked the following question â "What's the last thing you would tweet?" He replied, "I thought about saying, 'Read your Bibles and pray for insight,' because there is so much that needs to be known about God that cannot be put into one sentence." Instead of saying that, he summed the gospel up in 140 characters.However, a longtime pastor and theologian thought about boiling his last words down to: Read your Bible and pray. He said that there's so much that can be said which is difficult to fit into 140 characters. Therefore, he's encouraging God's people to open up the Word and ask the Spirit to work through their reading. This is exactly what this book seeks to do. More specifically, it seeks to teach students (and parents and youth leaders) what the Word of God is and how they should read it. There are so many things about life we must be teaching the next generation, but if we boil it down to one thing, Bible reading is essential. Can you think of anything more important? If we raise a future generation of Christians who know how to learn, live, and love God's Word, we will be raising a generation prepared for whatever this world throws their way.Bible 101 is broken into short chapters. It is an introductory study on the doctrine of Scripture . . . hence, 101. While the book is aimed at middle school students - it would also be a good refresher for any student or adult. It is the prayer of RYM that this book would be used to spread the beauty of the gospel to the next generation.

Wasting time might not seem like a big deal to some, except for the fact that our time really isn't ours, but God's. Not only that, but it is a limited resource. You can be the richest person in the world and you still can't buy more time. If we want a heart of wisdom, according to the psalmist, we must number our days. Your Days are Numbered takes a biblical look at the way in which we spend our time to cultivate this mind-set of seeing each day as a vital opportunity to live for the glory of God.

Your Days Are Numbered: A Closer Look at How We Spend Our Time & the Eternity Before Us
