From the dawn of creation, God was thinking of you and designed your life to play a key role in the outworking of the grand story he''s writing. He says to us, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you" (Jeremiah 1:5). But if you''re like most of us, it may sometimes seem as if your story is hopelessly off course.

The Jesus Bible Study Series is designed to lead you through the six main acts of Scripture:

The series reveals how Jesus plays a key role in each and every story told throughout the Bible, and helps you discover God''s purpose and plan for your life in his great story.

God''s Perfect Plan to Rescue Imperfect People.

In this beautiful Bible study series—brought to you by the makers of The Jesus Bible—you will dive in-depth into each of the six acts of God''s story and discover a deeper understanding of your own unique story by learning how the two are intricately tied together.

The opening chapters of Genesis reveal God''s perfect creation and the people he created to reflect his image in the world. But it isn''t long before tension emerges. The man and woman rebel against God, reject his authority, and bring sin into the world. Everything that follows is God''s plan to put what''s been broken back together and restore humanity.

Through six weeks of interactive lessons, REVOLT will usher you through the second act of God''s unchanging story, weaving together key passages from the Old and New Testaments to help you get a better image of our restoring God.

The Jesus Bible Study Series is designed to lead you through the six main acts of Scripture:

The series reveals how Jesus plays a key role in each and every story told throughout the Bible, and helps you discover God''s purpose and plan for your life in his great story.

 When God’s people break their word, God keeps his promise.

Not only is your story woven into God''s larger story, but you are also part of the tribe whom God is calling to himself. In the six lessons of People, you will explore how the nation of Israel was impacted by the unfolding drama of their cycle of revolt against God, and why the Lord commissioned a chosen people who would be a witness on earth of his faithfulness. Time and time again, God''s people turned their backs on him, but God was always quick to show mercy when they repented and called out to him. The cycle we see again and again throughout the Old Testament isn''t just about the Israelites; it''s also about us. We are all participants in the pattern of revolt, repentance, and restoration.

People will help you see how God works out his glorious plans, despite our defiance, to bring his promises to fruition, and you will also grasp that no matter how many times you turn away, God seeks you out to bring you back. Every time. People is the third of six volumes in the Jesus Bible Study Series, following Beginnings and Revolt. Work through all the volumes in any order individually or within a group setting.

Each study in this series features one of six key “acts” of Scripture:

In a world of bad news, the story of Jesus, our Savior, is incredibly good news. The apostle Paul tells us that all have sinned and fallen short of God’s holy standard (see Romans 3:23). The consequences of our sin and rebellion is death (see Romans 6:23). But God, in his great mercy, sent Jesus into the world to pay the penalty for our transgressions. Jesus, who is God-in-the-flesh, was the only sinless person to have ever lived. He was able to do what we could not do and make a way for us to come before God.

In  the  six  lessons  of  Savior,  you  will  explore  how  Jesus—being  fully  human  but  also  fully divine—was  able  to  offer himself as the perfect sacrifice for our sins. You will learn about Jesus’ mission for humanity, the kingdom of God he ushered in, and how he made a way for all who believe in him to be saved.  Savior will help you see that even though God may feel distant at times, he is always working for your good and his glory. God has always been faithful to his people—and he always will be.

Savior is the fourth of six volumes in the Jesus Bible Study Series, following Beginnings, Revolt, and People. Work through all the volumes in any order individually or within a group setting.

UPDATE

The purpose of The Jesus Bible Study Series is to help readers understand that Jesus is front and center throughout the Bible. He is as visible on the first page of Genesis as he is on the last page in Revelation—as present in the Garden of Eden as he is in the garden tomb and the new heavens and new earth. As readers follow this thread, they will discover a new depth to the Bible''s meaning as they come to discover Christ in every chapter of the story.

In Church, the fourth study in this series, readers will explore how God brought together a new group of people who have been redeemed by Jesus and have been formed to live on mission with him. While churches come in all shapes and sizes, the true Church of Jesus is comprised of all who have confessed him as Savior and Lord. This living organism—his body, the Church—serves to extend his grace and truth on earth.

In Forever, the sixth study in this series, readers will come to the conclusion and resolution of God''s great story. At a time that only the Father knows, everything in heaven and earth will be put right once and for all. Those opposed to Jesus will get what they have asked for—an eternity without his goodness and glory. The redeemed will gather in his presence from every race and nation, singing the song of Jesus who rescued them from death and brought them into unending life.
