Overview

Men of Purpose is an 8-volume systematic Bible study of godly men in the Bible who lived their lives with a driven sense of purpose. Delivering 100 Bible lessons, this series provides enough material for 2 years of weekly Bible study.

Men of Purpose was written and taught by one of today’s most respected Bible teachers, Dr. Gene Getz. With more volumes planned for the future, these first 8 volumes examine the lives of true men of purpose, with much to teach us today:

• Joseph: Overcoming Adversity
• Moses: Empowered by God
• Joshua: Fearless Leadership
• Samuel: Weighing Anchor
• Elijah: Unwavering Tenacity
• Nehemiah: Hope Under Construction
• The Apostles: Shoulder To Shoulder
• Paul: Becoming a Catalyst

Each of the leaders in this series faced trials, frustrations, and failure. Yet each was inspired by God to achieve great goals. In a world where Christian male role models seem increasingly rare, this series reminds us that some of the most worthy examples of godly character can be found in the biblical figures who brought power, wisdom, and inspiration to God's people. These inspiring lessons have never been needed more than now.

Each volume contains 12-13 weekly lessons, ideal for quarterly studies. Each lesson opens with icebreakers, offering fun, history-giving questions that are designed to warm up any group and build understanding between participants. The Bible study is the heart of your meeting, a group examination of the Bible and the key “Principles to Live By” that are drawn from it. Each session ends with prayer and direction in ministering to the needs of individual group members. You can choose from the discussion questions provided or use them all.
