How does ADULT BIBLE STUDIES help persons to engage the Scripture text?
The student version of ADULT BIBLE STUDIES emphasizes the primacy of the biblical text by • including the biblical Print Passage in every lesson; • concluding each lesson with an invitation to engage in daily study in preparation for the following week’s lesson. Daily Bible Study, a companion product, offers commentary on each of these daily texts; • offering questions for personal reflection at the end of each section of each lesson; • providing a closing prayer for each lesson; • responding to readers’ questions that they mail, email or phone in to the editor. The teacher version of ADULT BIBLE STUDIES emphasizes the primacy of the biblical text by • offering full, verse-by-verse commentary on the biblical print passage; • providing teachers with a complete step-by-step guide through the biblical passage, as well as the text of the student book.
