I love this small group study guide series from The Good Book Company. Christians are regularly told they should spend more time studying God’s Word, but sometimes there’s not a clear plan for how to do this. These study guides provide practical, step-by-step guidance on working through books of the Bible, along with wonderful questions that encourage reflection and application. I hope churches and Christian ministries will take advantage of this wonderful resource.
The aim of the The Good Book Company is to be biblical, relevant and accessible, and nothing embodies that ethos more than their Good Book Guides. Each guide provides a framework for your group to dig into the text of Scripture for itself while providing enough of a steer to keep you on track plus useful pointers towards application. The result is a great combination of fidelity to Scripture and ease of use.
The Good Book Guides are an immensely precious resource for the church. A careful blend of helpful context and clearly-worded, searching questions which aim to help readers to uncover the meaning of the text and apply it in responsible ways. I think these small group studies are the best available and pray that they will continue to prove helpful to local churches across the world!
Helpful comments on each passage with apt and non judgemental questions.
However too much in each session. At least 90 minutes needed for each
There's so much about this study to enjoy. We especially loved the way it helped us to see the connections between different incidents in the gospel, and also to explore the Old Testament background. We found it really exciting! Only 4 stars though because we found each study just covered too much ground to be satisfactory. Our sessions allow an hour for study 30 minutes for catch up and prayer, and after the first couple of studies we gave up trying to cram everything in and split the rest in half. There was plenty of material in half a study to fill the time. Maybe it was partly being on Zoom as well but we were getting frustrated with having to skim so quickly. With that adjustment, we have really enjoyed it.
