This 2003 resource from Abingdon Press provides material for weekly group discussions as well as daily preparation and reflection for participating in them.
The study introduces and explores the diverse presentations of Jesus in the four gospels, focusing on his identity, mission and teaching.
In addition to the Leader Guide there is aStudy Manual for individuals and a DVD Planning Kit. Related materials may be selected depending on how one wants to present and lead the group study.
“Participants in this study may expect to be confronted weekly by Jesus and summoned to deeper allegiance and loyalty to Jesus…,” writes Keck in the Leader Guide. “Participants may expect continually to confront the question, ‘What constitutes my followship?’”
I have used this Disciple Bible Study Resource effectively in small-group Bible studies.
