โฆ Synopsis
This fourteen-lesson study guide delves into two of Paul's earliest epistles, written to encourage and instruct new believers in their faith.
From two names you can trust-Woodrow Kroll and Back to the Bible-comes the latest addition to this study guide series, which is designed for personal use or small-group discussion. This volume, 1-2 Thessalonians, is rich with material on two of the apostle Paul's earliest letters to the new believers in the largely Gentile church in Thessalonica. Letters that still encourage and guide God's people today.
Each lesson provides a passage from these epistles in The Holy Bible: English Standard Versionยฎ, along with a related devotional, followed by a key verse for each lesson and three sections for interacting with and personally applying the content. ''Go Deeper'' cultivates a broader understanding of these Bible books and how they relate to other biblical passages. ''Express It'' offers suggestions for turning insights from the lesson into personal prayer. ''Consider It'' provides questions that reflect on the verses for that lesson.
This study guide, like all the others in the series, makes an excellent resource for Christians, classes, and groups at any point in their faith journey.
