Eight studies for small groups exploring the New Testament’s images for the church.
Part of the Good Book Guides series.
This Bible-study guide explores the different images that the New Testament uses to describe the church, exciting every church member about what it means to be part of God's people—his masterpiece to show his glory to the world and beyond.
Each study is designed to last between 1 and 1.5 hours, but can alternatively be split into two sessions. It contains ideas for starter discussions and activities, optional "Explore more" sections that draw links with the Old Testament, and a focus on practical application. A substantial leader's guide is included in the back.
