Rediscovering the Book of Faith Course Kit

The Rediscovering the Book of Faith Course is an excellent way to launch the Book of Faith initiative in your congregation. This three-session study explores how the Bible came to be our Book of Faith by providing an introduction of the creation, collection, and canonization of Scripture. Participants will discover where the Bible came from, will better understand how it was put together, and will examine the contribution the Reformation made toward scriptural literacy. With discussion-starting video clips and an easy-to-follow class plan, this course encourages participants to engage in reflection and discussion — and is an exciting way to invite your congregation to become part of the conversation!

The course kit includes the following:

• An expanded leader book that equips the course leader to guide the discussion with questions, leader helps, and reproducible handouts that encourage participants to creatively engage Scripture between sessions;
• A copy of the learner resource that outlines the purpose of the initiative and provides practical tools to help prepare leaders and Book of Faith participants;
• The Rediscovering the Book of Faith Course DVD with discussion-starting video clips for the course as well as a promotional clip to introduce the initiative to congregations.
