It comes with a Special Edition book, an In Depth Study Guide, 162 minute DVD, and Group Leader Tools! You have one life-that's all. Be sure not to waste it, and help others not to waste their lives. This is John Piper's plea to the youth of today. He issues a passionate call for this generation to make their lives count for eternity and gives sound instruction on how to avoid a wasted life.

Though there will be risks for those who seek to make a difference with the time they are given, pursuing God's purpose is the greatest joy one can know. The path of God's glory and our pleasure are one and the same. May all come to know this, and in the end, let none say of their lives, "I've wasted it."
Included in this group study kit is a special edition copy of the best-selling book, a Don't Waste Your Life study guide, and a teaching DVD featuring ten sessions with John Piper and more. This kit is ideal for aiding study groups and classes in the study of this life-changing message.

An uplifting book, especially for those experiencing great suffering and loss.

Trim size: 8 x 11

#40 Prima Latina Student Guide and Teacher's Manual!

http://www.memoriapress.com/ I can't TELL you how jealous I am. Some lucky winner will get Prima Latina! Memoria Press donated Prima Latina An Introduction to Christian Latin for Grades K-3, by Leigh LowePrima Latina was developed for young children who are still becoming familiar with English grammar and wish to learn Latin at a slower pace. The program provides 25 lessons, each including a grammar skill, 5 vocabulary words with corresponding English derivatives, a practical Latin phrase, and one line of a prayer that is learned in totality over five lessons.

The exercises that accompany each lesson are thorough and provide constant review of materials learned throughout the course. After each five lessons, a review chapter summarizes the material covered and provides a keyed test to insure mastery. With grammar lessons appropriate for primary grades and an easy to read two color format, Prima Latina is the perfect choice for those who would like to start Latin early and lay the foundation of a rigorous language arts program.

Prima Latina was written to transition directly into Latina Christiana, allowing students to complete an entire Latin sequence without missing important concepts or vocabulary. Prima Latina is accompanied by an audio CD which includes pronunciation direction for each lesson and four beautiful hymns from Lingua Angelica. Because Latina Christiana I Flashcards include every word in Prima Latina, they are an ideal study aid and a great investment for students who intend to continue on with Latina Christiana. Prima uses a clear and systematic format to introduce Latin to young students. It teaches important English and Latin grammar concepts, as well as vocabulary, sayings, prayers, hymns, and constellation. Some of the material covered in Prima is:

Recognizing English and Latin Verbs
Invisible Verbs
Recognizing English and Latin Nouns
