An Easy-to-Understand, Practical Study on the Life and Ministry of Jesus
If you've ever wanted to study the Bible but didn't know where to start, this study was made for you. Encountering Jesus is a friendly, accessible six-session introduction to the life and ministry of Jesus, designed specifically for beginners. No prior Bible knowledge required. Just an open mind and a willingness to encounter the person at the center of all four Gospels.
Throughout the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, we meet Jesus of Nazareth as he moves through first-century Judea--teaching, healing, and stopping to encounter people in all their complexity: the rich young ruler, the woman at the well, Nicodemus, blind Bartimaeus, the woman caught in adultery, the forgotten, the powerful, and the outcast. Some of those encounters brought transformation. Others were met with resistance and anger. All of them reveal who Jesus is--and all of them still speak today.
Each of the six sessions includes:
● An overview of the passage and its context--so you always know where you are in the story
● Bible study strategies--practical tools for engaging Scripture on a deeper level that you'll carry into every Bible study you do from here
● Memory verses and prayer prompts--to help the words of Jesus take root in your daily life
● Questions for further reflection--designed to spark meaningful conversation in a group or honest self-examination on your own
This study is ideal for new believers taking their first steps in Scripture, for anyone who has attended church for years but never felt confident reading the Bible on their own, and for small group leaders looking for an accessible, substantive six-week curriculum. It works equally well for personal study or group use.
Produced by Bethany House Publishers (Baker Publishing Group)--trusted by millions of readers for accessible, theologically sound Christian resources.
Jesus is still encountering people--including you--through his Word. Encountering Jesus is your invitation to begin.
