Well, you've probably heard about the movie Overcomer, but you might not know that there are

actually some books and Bible studies that were inspired by the film. One is called Defined.

It's by Alex and Stephen Kendrick, and it's a book and Bible study based on

insights from the book of Ephesian. It's got personal stories and practical wisdom. Defined

You can find these books and Bible studies at Lifeway.com slash Overcomer.
