Behold and Believe
Courtney Doctor & Joanna Kimbrel
7-Week Women’s Bible Study from the Gospel Coalition Explores Jesus's “I Am” Statements in the Gospel of John Seeing is believing. If we want to know who Jesus is and why he is important to our lives, we need to take a closer look at what he said about himself. Jesus describes himself as the bread of life, the light of the world, the good shepherd, and more. His bold words invite us to behold him—and then to trust him. Whether you've never read the Bible, have followed Jesus for years, or find yourself somewhere in between, this 7-week Bible study from Courtney Doctor and Joanna Kimbrel explores the question, Who is Jesus? Using the “I Am” statements in the Gospel of John, readers will learn how to observe, interpret, apply, and reflect on key Bible verses about Jesus’s identity.

First Steps (Bible Studies)
John Robertshaw
Becoming a Christian is the start of a new life and there is a lot to learn. First Steps aims to lead you step by step to a fuller understanding of what Christians believe and to help you live your life with God. Jesus once told a story about two builders. The wise one built his house on the rock, the foolish one built his house on the sand. When the storms came, the house on the rock stood firm, but the other one fell down because it had such poor foundations. Jesus said that if we hear his words and put them into practice, then, like that wise man, we will have a firm foundation for our life which will not shift when the storms come. I hope and pray that First Steps will help you build a solid foundation for your life. - John Robertshaw 15 Studies each 4 pages long with spaces for answers and comments. - Becoming a Christian - A Child of God - I Forgive You - The Bible - Water Baptism - Bread and Wine - Jesus is Alive - Holy Spirit - Talking with God - Servant of God - Know the Enemy - Victory in Jesus - The Church - The Future - Fishers of Men Also useful information for new Christians.
