¿Cómo está su alma? Es una pregunta sorprendentemente distinta del típico "¿Cómo estás?", pero esa es la pregunta que Judah Smith, el autor del libro de mayor venta Jesús es ________, escoge hacerles a sus amigos, porque sabe que la salud del alma con frecuencia es soslayada en el ajetreo de la vida diaria. ¿Cómo está su alma? es un llamado refrescante con el que cualquiera que esté buscando estabilidad emocional, plenitud y satisfacción se puede identificar, ya que es una invitación a dejar de vivir al día y en lugar de ello comenzar a vivir en una manera intencional con el fin en mente. "Un alma acallada es mucho más valiosa que la fama y la fortuna. Un alma nivelada, un alma equilibrada, un alma genuina; es un regalo de Dios".

In this six-session video Bible study, Judah Smith, bestselling author of Jesus Is_____, asks a surprisingly different question from the usual "How are you?"--but this is the question Judah chooses to ask his friends, because he knows the health of the soul is too often overlooked in the busyness of everyday life. In the rush of living moment to moment, many of us find ourselves simply surviving, struggling daily with frustration, restlessness, boredom, and ever-fleeting joy. But if we would pause, we''d find the things that matter most in life--stability, peace, hope, love--are rooted in the health of what Judah calls the "inside you." Judah shares his own mistakes and foibles to help you find your way through the emotional roller coasters of life and discover the soul-healing essentials of rest, responsibility, restraint, and relationships. This is an invitation to find lasting satisfaction by bringing your feelings into alignment with God''s truth, moving beyond surviving to thriving, and learning how to live each day with eternal significance. The How''s Your Soul Study Guide includes video discussion questions, Bible exploration, and personal study and reflection materials for in-between sessions. Sessions include: When Is My Soul Home? (19:30) What Makes My Soul Healthy? (21:30) Why Does My Soul Have Hope? (11:30) Who Does My Soul Hold On To? (15:30) How Is My Soul Helped? (12:00) Where Is My Soul Headed? (21:00) Bonus interviews included on the DVD. This pack contains one study guide and one DVD.

Judah Smith, New York Times bestselling author of Jesus Is ____, helps readers understand what steals their peace of mind and outlines the path to peace and fulfillment: understanding and implementing the healthy soul environment God originally designed. Modern everyday life is stressful and confusing, full of overly packed schedules and circumstances outside one’s control. This can be especially troubling for Christians who are wrestling with reality while trying to put their trust in God. But the truth is, anxiety does not have to be the constant from day to day. In fact, all the things people most desire in life--peace of mind, hope for tomorrow--are rooted in one simple thing: how they care for the health of their souls. In How''s Your Soul?, Judah Smith explores the various facets and needs of the inner person, demonstrating that the path to cultivating healthy souls starts with discovering God’s original design. He helps readers find real peace and security by bringing their feelings into alignment with God’s truth, discover a healthy sense of identity from God and feel empowered to face the future with a new security and confidence, and learn the four elements necessary for a healthy soul environment. Sharing his own often humorous mistakes and foibles, Judah offers a helping hand as readers find their way through the emotional rollercoasters of life to discover the soul-healing essentials rooted in what he calls the soul’s only true home--God himself.

Winning Souls Starts With Loving People Christian evangelism has too often focused on "winning souls" to the exclusion of meeting real, everyday needs. Yet Jesus'' earthly ministry followed a different pattern: He reached for people on the margins. He touched people no one else would touch. He spoke hope to people consumed by despair. And as the Lord extended Himself in compassion to meet the needs of the sick, the lost, and the hopeless, people turned their hearts to Him. Love Like Jesus will help you follow Jesus'' pattern for changing lives. You will learn the importance of placing your confidence in Him alone, of staying faithful through seasons of unfruitfulness, of facing your fears with courage, and much more. Most of all, you will catch a vision of God''s unfathomable love for every person, and get the tools you need to share it with people in need of a Savior.
