Author Description

Jesus Bible Study Book includes printed content for six sessions, personal study between group sessions, applicable Scripture, "How to Use This Study," a leader guide, and tips for leading a group. Every person in the Bible is a supporting actor in God's story--each revealing who God is and what His will is for human beings both then and now. In these characters, we see a glimpse of ourselves, coming to understand our failings, our potential, and God's purpose through it all. Everything has led to this. From Adam to Noah to Moses to David to Elijah, every character has pointed us to the central character in God's story.

In Him, all things in the Bible and in our lives come together. Session topics: 1. Jesus: The Fulfillment of Prophecy 2. Jesus: The Son of God 3. Jesus: The Master Teacher 4.
