How to Lead a LifeGuide Bible Study
Overview
You can be the match that ignites a great Bible discussion! You only need a few basic skills. Over 100,000 copies of this handbook (now revised and expanded from the original, Leading Bible Discussions) have been used by Bible study leaders and Sunday school teachers. Along with practical suggestions and the answers to common questions offered in each brief chapter, you’ll find two appendixes: “Guidelines for Interpreting Scripture” and “A Sample Study.” The resources section also leads you to more training guides, website references and study guides to use with your group.
