Elijah & Elisha: Holy Friendship, Holy Fire is the 11th in a series of in-depth, inductive Bible studies designed to be used by small groups or individuals. Discipleship resources created by CrossWise Living Ministries are designed to promote intergenerational ministry and mentoring relationships.
About the study
“Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah…So he did what the Lord had told him.” 1 Kings 17:2,5
Whether he was boldly confronting the evil King Ahab, hiding at the Kerith Brook, or triumphantly calling down the fire of judgment on Mt. Carmel, Elijah’s obedience to God was unwavering. Declaring that the Lord God of Israel was alive, he fearlessly challenged Ahab and Jezebel to repent of having led the nation astray through idolatry. Elijah’s constant awareness of the presence of God enabled him to move in power and prevail in prayer. He had no doubt that God was with him: with him in the wilderness, with him in the fire, with him in the gentle whisper, with him in his time of despair, and with him in the gift of Elisha’s friendship. This 8-week study of the prophets Elijah and Elisha will help you grow in faith as you follow their example in courageously speaking and acting on the Word of God.

The Life & Writings of Solomon is the ninth in a series of in-depth, inductive Bible studies designed to be used by small groups or individuals. Discipleship resources created by CrossWise Living Ministries are designed to promote intergenerational ministry and mentoring relationships.
About the study
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” Proverbs 9:10
God appeared to Solomon during the night in a dream, and told him to ask for whatever he wanted. Pleased with his request for a discerning heart so he might govern well and distinguish between right and wrong, God gave him exceedingly deep insight, and understanding beyond measure.
Solomon’s great intellect is fully on display in the Old Testament wisdom books of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon, but his fall from the heights of anointing by God to the depths of idolatry was cataclysmic. How did the man to whom God gave incomparable wealth, riches and fame, as well as matchless wisdom, come to build his house like a foolish man, not on a rock but on sand?
This 16-week study of the life and writings of Solomon will show us practical ways to live our lives with spiritual insight and discernment. We will also observe the perils of drifting into a life of disobedience that leads to cynicism and unbelief. God lets us choose our path: it is up to us to study God’s Word in order to choose wisely.

The Life & Psalms of David is the eighth in a series of in-depth, inductive Bible studies designed to be used by small groups or individuals. Discipleship resources created by CrossWise Living Ministries are designed to promote intergenerational ministry and mentoring relationships.
About the study
“But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.” Psalm 59:16-17
Both a mighty warrior and a skillful poet-musician, King David wrote almost half the book of Psalms, the worship manual that has given expression to the praises and laments of God’s people throughout the generations. Although David is described in the Bible as “… a man after God’s own heart,” Scripture does not conceal the fact that he was deeply flawed and sinful.
In this 16-week study, we’ll take an in-depth look at the Old Testament record of David’s life along with the corresponding Psalms he wrote as he experienced life’s trials and sorrows, defeats and victories. We will learn from his example how to be both spiritual warriors and faithful worshippers of the Living God.

Where can we find hope in uncertain times?
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.” 1 Peter 1:3
In order to flourish as God intends, we must “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:28). This 3-part, 20-lesson Bible study explores the Father’s grace and mercy in the life one who was as flawed and fragile as we understand ourselves to be. The forgiveness of our Savior and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit are clearly seen in the vivid portrait we find of the great Apostle Peter in the gospels, the book of Acts, and finally, the letters he wrote to bring practical wisdom and encouragement to the church.
