The Power of Obedience

Reading Scripture Through the Lens of Obedient Discipleship

By: Deborah L. Roeger

What does God require of you? Many Christians are asking this question, and looking for an answer that is biblically founded. You can find the answer in this book. In her previous book, God Still Speaks, Deborah Roeger outlined a sound basis for hearing from God, discerning His voice, and following Him more closely as we develop the habit of listening. In this first volume of her series "Lost in Translation," she studies biblical obedience. Rather than speaking of obedience as a list of duties, she presents it as a uniquely powerful way to live. This book is rooted in the stories of Scripture, especially of the Old Testament. From those roots the study unfolds a practical, life-changing approach to discipleship based on finding God's will and joyfully joining Him. Each chapter provides a key verse and a number of scriptural examples to follow as we seek to become more effective disciples. We do this not to earn God's favor, but to align with His will and to enjoy a life of peace and communion with the God who loves us. The book contains well researched word studies which link the lessons with specific key words in Scripture. Each word study provides helpful insight into how that word is used biblically and how it informs our discipleship. This book is intended for group study, but can also be read and studied individually. It is a resource for Christian education classes wanting to dig deeper into God's Word presented in the Bible.

My Dwelling Place

Reading Scripture Through The Lens Of God’s Desire To Dwell Among Us

By: Deborah L Roeger

The concept of God’s presence is deeply embedded in Christian teaching from God’s presence in the Garden of Eden, through the hope of God’s presence in the New Earth. But what does it that mean? Many Christians find it difficult to explain what is meant by God’s presence. We hear of God being especially present in a worship service, or of specific places where God’s presence is expected by the pilgrims who travel there. We know that God’s presence was somehow in the tabernacle, and will be part of the new earth when Jesus returns. It is also taught that God is omnipresent, that is, present everywhere and always.,/p> But what is God’s presence? What does it take for Him to dwell among His people and why does it matter? In this third volume under the Lost in Translation imprint, Deborah Roeger applies her in-depth and detailed yet extremely practical approach to Bible study to look at God’s presence in its many forms and manifestations from the creation to the restoration of God’s creation. As she traces God’s dwelling presence through the pages of Scripture she looks thoughtfully at what God requires of us so He can be present among us. In the process, she provides a thematic look at the whole of scripture that can be used as a guide to study other topics with full attention to the overall context of the story we find in Scripture. It is the story of God, who created for His glory and longs for the restoration of His dwelling presence among His creation. This understanding of the broad context will help you put other events in their proper place in the history of God’s plan of salvation. My Dwelling Place is not just an explanation of biblical terms. It is first of all an explanation of what it takes for God to come and dwell among us. It is then a call to take up our mission and the gifts God has given us and to learn to practice His presence at all times. As in each volume in this series, there is a valuable added resource in the appendix discussing how to do word studies and how to use both available tools for Bible study and to take the context of each passage seriously when doing so. This study can be read individually, but it is especially valuable as a resource for small group study or for a transforming church-wide study.

The Power of Hope

Reading Scripture Through the Lens of Hope

By: Deborah L. Roeger

When you speak of hope, do you use the world's definition or the biblical meaning? Did you know God designed hope to empower our lives? On what do you base your hope as a Christian? In this second book under the Lost in Translation imprint, Deborah Roeger examines scripture in the light of hope. In doing so, she takes the reader through a meaningful study of all aspects of a Christian's hope. Yet this study is much more than that. As you learn about the truth of biblical hope, you will discover how understanding hope helps you appreciate and apply the teachings of scripture more effectively, both in your life and in the life of your church. There are 21 individual word studies, looking at key words in scripture that relate to hope and its application, along with an appendix explaining how to do word studies. Easy to understand guidance is provided to help avoid common pitfalls and make word studies more effective in your study. This book uses an extensive bibliography and is comprehensively referenced with hundreds of detailed footnotes. The footnotes provide the reader with the opportunity to walk through the steps the author has taken in studying this subject. It's a treasure-trove for modern Bereans who want to "search the scriptures every day to see whether these things were true" (Acts 17:11). This book is well suited for group study, but can also be read and studied individually. It is a valuable resource for Christian education classes wanting to dig deeper into the subject of biblical hope as it is presented in God's Word.

God Still Speaks

The Key to Effective Discipleship

By: Deborah Roeger

Can I hear God’s voice? How can I be sure I am hearing correctly if I do? What does the Bible say about this? In this thoroughly Scripture-based guide, Bible teacher Debbie Roeger says we can. Building on a biblical foundation, she provides clear testimonies from people of various walks of life, not only hearing God speak, but putting what God says into action in more effective discipleship. God Still Speaks joins God’s growing arsenal of resources about hearing His voice. A feature that distinguishes this book from others previously published is the more than 80 personal testimonies from family and friends describing their experiences of hearing God. Those testimonies make this book a valuable resource for everyone without regard to the level of experience they have hearing God’s voice. The book’s centerpiece is an extended discussion differentiating God’s voice and the voice of the accuser. Because hearing and obeying God is how we come to know Him, proficiency is key to effective discipleship as Christ-followers. This book is suitable for individual reading but will find its most powerful role as a study for small groups, or for church-wide use.

Dreaming Ecology

Nomadics and Indigenous Ecological Knowledge, Victoria River, Northern Australia

By: Deborah Bird Rose

In the author’s own words, Dreaming Ecology ‘explores a holistic understanding of the interconnections of people, country, kinship, creation and the living world within a context of mobility. Implicitly it asks how people lived so sustainably for so long’. It offers a telling critique of the loss of Indigenous life, human and non-human, in the wake of white settler colonialism and this becoming ‘cattle country’. It offers a fresh perspective on nomadics grounded in ‘footwalk epistemology’ and ‘an ethics of return sustained across different species, events, practices and scales’. ‘This is the final and most substantial of Debbie’s love letters to the Aboriginal people of the Victoria River Downs. I say this because there is such a sense of reverence, wonder and respect throughout the book. The introduction of concepts of double-death, footwalk epistemology, wild country … are not only organising ideas but characterisations arising from what Debbie hears, sees and feels of herself and Aboriginal others … I think of it in terms of love, if love is care, reciprocal respect, deep connectivity and a strong desire to never make less of the people she chose to commit herself to.’ —Richard Davis ‘This book was a pleasure to read, filled with careful description of people, places, and various plants and animals, and insightful analysis of the patterns and commitments that hold them together in the world.’ —Thom van Dooren
