1, 2, & 3 John Modern Day Disciple (Student Guide) - Paul Jones - Bog

The Modern Day Disciple series takes a fresh and unique approach to inductive Bible Study. Each lesson focuses exclusively on the Biblical text and actively engages each student in the Word of God itself. This is achieved through a multi level approach which remains consistent throughout each lesson. The entire methodology begins with the Biblical text. Each day the student is asked to read through parts of the scripture they are studying. They do this with a unique reading plan that is outlined in each day's lesson. This repetitive approach brings context and clarity to the text over time, as well as promoting the discipline of consistent Bible reading. After reading the text the students read a short "thought to consider" that merges modern examples with the Biblical text in a challenging and thought provoking way. There are then a series of questions that should be considered that again revolve around the Biblical text. Each lesson additionally offers key words, cross references, and a straightforward prayer guide for the day. Most of the daily exercises can be completed in twenty minutes or less. These lessons can be completed by those who are new to the faith or firmly grounded in their spiritual walk. Virtually any Bible translation can be used with these lessons, allowing students to read the Word of God from their preferred text. The goal of the authors is not to teach the text, but rather to guide the modern day disciple through the text, and allow the Spirit of God to enlighten, encourage, and enrich each believer's life. These studies have been tried and tested in ministries of various sizes and denominations with amazing results.
