Discovering the Bible Previous Edition (available for a short time)

Introduce your congregation to the people, places and stories of the Bible. This invitation to find where The Story lives in your story provides the perfect meeting place for both those brand-new to Bible study, and those who have had long familiarity with Scripture.

Incorporating good scholarship with sound learning principles, Discovering the Bible: A New Generation is ideal for Sunday-morning groups ready for serious study, or weekday groups excited to pursue a study of the Bible whole. Through a process of reading, reflections, discussion, creative expression and discovery, both the first-time learner and the lifelong student are invited to a deeper knowledge and understanding of the Bible.

The course may be scheduled for one or one and one-half hours, and may be led by church professionals or laypersons. The 30 sessions may also be divided into modular study units allowing room for appropriate seasonal breaks. Whether used as a preparatory course to Kerygma: the Bible in Depth or as an independent study, Discovering the Bible: A New Generation provides adults with an engaging and rewarding encounter with Scripture they will always be glad they experienced.

The new Leader's Guide CD-Rom component of Discovering the Bible: A New Generation will delight leaders and visual learners:
• CD-ROM format Leader’s Guide for customized lesson planning
