October Books and Bible Study Picks

As the nights grow longer and a chill enters the air, we are often beckoned inward. Inward to our homes, to families, and to ourselves. And as we turn inward, we may find ourselves with sudden time and space to pick up a good book—cozied warm under a blanket on the couch. However, for others, October is a season where everything begins to ramp up. Late night football practices, celebrations, and even the beginning of Christmas shopping leaves you breathless—and feeling a little bit empty—even among all the abundance.

Whatever circumstances this October finds you in, remember that it is always the right time to come close to God. He calls us to be near Him, to remember that He is all we need in any season. So, peruse the list below and make space to dive deep into the riches that are offered to you in Christ.

	Awakening Wonder \| Experiencing the Nearness of Jesus Experience the centuries-old practice of Advent—the intentional anticipation of God’s presence with man. During the season of Advent, you’ll join with Christians around the world to prepare your heart to celebrate the incarnation—the accomplishment of God taking the form of a human and dwelling among us. (Make sure you don’t wait to purchase. This Bible study sells out every year, and we don’t restock!)
	Revelation \| The End of Time and the Eternal King Have you ever wanted to study Revelation but felt too intimidated? Revelation \| The End of Time and the Eternal King is for you! It is a verse-by-verse expositional study of the book of Revelation intended to make perhaps the most difficult and controversial book of the Bible accessible to everyone.
	The Good Shepherd \| Living in the Care and Comfort of Christ Fall can bring a lot of wonderful things, but this season can also leave some feeling aimless and uncertain. The Good Shepherd is an anthology that reminds you that you are safe, guided, and protected by a God who loves you greatly.
	The Church Calendar \| Focusing on Christ Through Liturgical Living Fall is a time when schedules often pick up and can leave us feeling overwhelmed—like we are at sea without an anchor. The Church Calendar: Focusing on Christ Through Liturgical Living invites you to rediscover time, not as something to manage, but as something holy. This book is a warm and accessible guide to the liturgical year—an ancient practice that has shaped believers for centuries.
	Christ in All of Scripture \| 4-Volume \| Year-Long Bible Study With the last months of the year waning down, January will be here before you know it. Therefore, now is the right time to start thinking about what you want to study in the new year. Christ in All of Scripture is a year-long study that will help you discover Jesus through the whole Bible. This study will forever change how you read and understand the Word.
	The Prayer Handbook \| A Comprehensive Guide to the Practice of Prayer Many of us want to grow in our prayer lives, but struggle to know exactly how to do it. Should you simply pray whatever comes to mind or pray Scripture? How do you pray Scripture? Wherever you are in your prayer life, The Prayer Handbook will meet you where you are by teaching you what Scripture says about prayer and by showing you how you can develop a confident, consistent, and joyful practice of prayer. Launches October 27, 2025
	Grace in Chaos \| Biblical Hope for the Hard Days of Motherhood Motherhood is a beautiful journey. It is also a hard journey, and the longer nights and shorter days of fall can make that journey feel that much harder and lonely. Grace in Chaos reminds you that God is with you in your motherhood. He is strengthening, helping, and restoring you as you daily care for your children. This Bible study will remind you that God is your very present help—in this season and all seasons.
	Come and See \| A Study on the Gospel of John Fall offers abundance. The abundance of a long-awaited harvest, abundance of celebrations, and the abundance of days packed to the brim. But what does it actually look like to live an abundant life? We live in a world that tries to convince us that life can be found in temporary pleasures. However, in the pages of the Gospel of John and through this Bible study, you are invited to “come and see” and to believe in the only source of true life: Jesus Christ.
	Draw Near to God \| A Collection of Liturgies, Prayers, and Blessings There is something about the chill of fall that draws us together. We enter warm houses, looking to be with others. Similarly, the fall also beckons us to draw near to God—to experience His closeness in the darkness. Draw Near to God is a beautiful resource full of written liturgies and blessings that will guide you as you pray and seek to draw near to the One who loves you so.
	Is God Enough For Me? Finding Real Contentment in Christ As the holidays ramp up, so does our desire for more. And suddenly, we are unsatisfied in a myriad of ways. We see our neighbors joyfully gather with their family, and are discontent with our own family. Our friend has a secure job that can buy her a nice Christmas vacation, while you are barely scraping by. Suddenly, amid abundance, you are suddenly left wanting. Is God Enough For Me? \| Finding Real Contentment in Christ is a five-week study created to meet you—as discontented as you may be—right where you are with biblical truth, proving that Christ holds all you need to find satisfaction in any and all circumstances.
