Synopsis

In this companion guide to the book Crushing Chaos, respected pastor and Bible nerd Manny Arango helps us establish peace by applying lessons from the gospel in our chaotic, disordered lives. Crushing Chaos is a deeply biblical and fresh look at what is wrong with the world and what is wrong with us. It is a book about sin, but maybe not in the way you might think. It dives into the monster stories of the Bible to reveal how chaos has always been holding people back from the life of dignity, joy, and purpose God has for us. Chaos shows up in our lives in the form of a struggling marriage, moral failure, past trauma, or present suffering. In this compelling, author-curated guide, readers will engage key questions, dig into the Bible, and complete activities that help them chart a path through the chaos to a life of order, joy, and peace. Whatever monsters you face, the Crushing Chaos Study Guide reveals how followers of Christ can rewire their lives for peace and join Jesus in the work of bringing order to our lives and world.

How to Use This Guide

Hey,

I’m glad you’re here. Reaching out to you through these pages is a privilege. And I prayed for you as I wrote. Consider this an in- vitation to pray for me, too, as you read—I need it!

This is a six-week study of Crushing Chaos. You’ll be reading through the book on your own and discussing it with a group. I’ve set it up so the guide is split into six sessions, and each session has work for you to do yourself—On Your Own—before your group then meets—All Together.

Here’s the rhythm: Read the content for yourself, wrestling with it as you go, then gather as a group and take your under- standing to the next level. There are three to seven chapters for each session—that’s no more than a chapter a day of reading if you’re meeting once a week. But I know that some readers will do all the work in one day, while others of you will spread the read- ing out over the whole week. I’m not here to judge—I want you to make this time of study your own.
