Hidden Bible Study Guide plus Streaming Video: Finding Delight in Your Life with Christ

What would your life feel like if the pressure valve to be known and seen was finally released? What if there's a different way of living altogether—one that leads to a unique beauty and bounty, one where we're firmly planted in Kingdom values?

Unveiling seven hidden characters in Scripture, we will mine their lives for the unique lessons of the concealed life, understanding that we are often concealed so that His glory might be revealed. Rather than fixating on the number of likes our posts receive or how many online followers we have, being hidden in Christ means living out of the truth of Who holds our hearts, hidden and secure. When God sees us, it doesn't really matter who else does or doesn't.

"…your life is hidden with Christ in God" (Colossians 3:3b, CSB). What an astounding promise! In a world where excellence is equated to exposure, and legacy is equated to likes, what does it mean to pursue a hidden life? God's Word offers us an astoundingly counter-cultural way of existing—one without the pressure to perform or make a platform. While there's nothing inherently wrong about exposure, we often confuse God's favor with famousness. 

Living a concealed life (whether known by many or by none) is about resetting our motivations and thoughts. Excavating multiple concealed characters in God's Grand Narrative (including the Sons of Korah, Baruch, Ichabod, Huldah, the Daughters of Shallum, Jerushua, and Jael), we'll explore the power and purpose of hiddenness.

We will also explore hiddenness throughout Scripture: 

• Why does God hide Himself? (Isaiah 45:5)
• Why is it God's glory to conceal a matter? (Proverbs 25:2)
• Why do secret things belong to the Lord? (Deuteronomy 29:29)
• What's the significance of Jesus' "social hiddenness"? Why did Jesus often heal people and instruct them to "tell no one" (Matthew; Isaiah)?
• What might we learn about God's hiddenness from the 400-year silence between Malachi and Matthew?
