"If you're looking for a resource that not only teaches but also
trains, this is it. In All Things encourages us as participants to
be active learners, mining the book of Philippians with
time-honored tools. Melissa Kruger invites us into the text,
helping us move from observation to interpretation to application
and finally to devotional reflection based on what we have learned.
I know firsthand the richness of this approach. I'm thrilled to
recommend this study and pray she writes many more."
--Jen Wilkin, author of None Like Him "Melissa Kruger helps readers
put their heads down into Scripture to explore what is before and
underneath and around the text, offering helpful insights along the
way that deepen understanding. Then she invites readers to look
intently into the reality of their own lives to apply the truths of
the text in meaningful and life-changing ways. This is a solid
study of a short book from a trusted source."
--Nancy Guthrie, author of Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament Bible
study series
"If you have read Melissa Kruger before, you will know that she has
a passion for the study and right interpretation of God's Word and
a gift for helping others study and understand it for themselves.
She is also disarmingly honest, an excellent writer, and a superb
storyteller. In All Things is a devotional study through
Philippians that will guide you and your group through this
important letter with its message of unshakeable joy. I warmly
commend it to you."
--Ligon Duncan, chancellor and CEO of the Reformed Theological
Seminary
"Daily life--from the world news to our own personal
difficulties--often seems uncertain and unsettling. Each of us
faces circumstances beyond our control and situations we never
anticipated. At such times, joy can be elusive. In All Things is a
bright light shining through the fog. With warmth and biblical
wisdom, Melissa Kruger guides readers on a nine-week journey
through the book of Philippians, bringing us to rest in the
ultimate source of unshakeable joy, Jesus."
--Megan Hill, writer, speaker, editorial board member at
Christianity Today, and author of Praying Together
"Thank you, Melissa, for another excellent Bible study. What a
fantastic format to set a busy mum up to succeed in developing her
own spiritual life as she faces the ever-pressing demands of
nurturing all those in her care! This is great subject matter to
study together to reshape every part of life with a gospel,
missional perspective!"
--Kristyn Getty, wife, mother, hymn writer, and singer
"Is it true that we can find real and lasting joy? Where do we even
begin to look? Melissa Kruger has done us a great service. In All
Things helps us with our search for unshakeable joy. You won't have
to look for long (she tells you on the second page!): it's Jesus.
Christ-centered, theological, and relatable; I highly recommend
this book!"
--Trillia Newbell, author of Enjoy, God's Very Good Idea, and Fear
and Faith
"Who doesn't want more joy? I love how Melissa Kruger guides
readers in the way of Jesus, the way of grace and peace, no matter
where life may take us."
--Collin Hansen, editorial director of the Gospel Coalition and
coauthor of A God-Sized Vision
"With biblical knowledge and practical wisdom, Melissa brings
refreshing insight to a familiar topic: joy. This study of
Philippians skips feel-good platitudes and simple self-helps and
wrestles thoroughly with the passages of Scripture through meaning,
interpretation, application, and communion in each week's focal
truth. This study is so needed; I'm anticipating the many lives
changed by unshakeable joy through these pages."
--Ruth Chou Simons, artist and best-selling author of GraceLaced
