Paul (Deepening Life Together) 2nd Edition

The apostle Paul did more than any other person in the ancient world to assure that Christianity became a cross-cultural movement rather than an obscure Jewish sect. His writings make up much of the New Testament. But how did Jesus take a young hothead who persecuted Christians and turn him into the first evangelist to the Gentiles? What can we learn from the way Paul responded to God's call? Deepening Life Together helps answer these questions and many more. Each session guides you through the Scriptures, cultivating a dynamic group discussion and helping you grow in a deeper relationship with God and others. This is an 4-session study from the Deepening Life Together Series. Perfect for small group ministries, Sunday school classes, and church-wide campaigns, this unique DVD-based small group series includes everything a new or experienced leader needs to successfully start or sustain a healthy small group. Guides include spiritual assessments and group forms to chart and track your spiritual growth as well as reflections for daily watering in the Word. For groups who like to go even deeper, guides include optional reference material and questions for deeper study. There are also Leader Notes in the back of the book.The Lifetogether curriculum format is based on the five Biblical purposes from the Purpose-Driven Paradigm and is developed to enhance fellowship, discipleship, ministry, evangelism, and worship in the small group setting.
