1 Corinthians: A 12-Week Study (Knowing the Bible)
<p>"A tremendous resource for those wanting to study and teach the Bible with an understanding of how the gospel is woven throughout Scripture." ―Bryan Chapell, Pastor, Grace Presbyterian Church</p><p>The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word.</p><p>These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses†highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections†show how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings†identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture.</p><p>With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on every page of the Bible.</p><p>The book of 1 Corinthians contains Paul’s exhortations to the church in Corinth, which was struggling with a lack of unity brought about by arrogance and divisiveness.</p><p>In this accessible study, pastor and author Jay Thomas helps readers understand the only remedy for such disunity: the pride-defeating truth of the gospel. At the heart of 1 Corinthians is the reality that the good news of Jesus Christ miraculously saves, changes, and unites God’s people.</p>
