Bible Studies

Go deeper into God’s Word together. We believe fellowship and Bible study shouldn’t begin and end with Sunday mornings. Guided studies are a great way to foster doctrinal and theological wisdom, as well as build intimate small-group connections. The studies featured here have been hand-picked by the Concordia Supply team, and are each designed to help Christians grow both in knowledge of God and in practical wisdom for navigating life’s situations. Each study includes material for several weeks of group discussion, as well as individual devotional content. Leader materials for guiding sessions, including video access, are also available.

AMOS: AN INVITATION TO THE GOOD LIFE

By Jennifer Rothschild. Amos is often called a prophet of doom. And when you begin to read his prophecy, it doesn’t take long to realize that nickname fits. On the surface, his prophecy doesn’t sound like a happy formula for the good life. However, every condemnation he gives serves as an invitation, a cry for us to “seek God and live” (Amos 5:4). You’ll be invited to live assured, faithful, chosen, humble, justly, prayerful, and hopeful. This kind of living will bring us and others around us peace and true prosperity. • Leader helps to guide questions and discussions within small groups • 7 weeks of personal study to be completed between the 8 group sessions • Access to 8 teaching videos, approximately 30 minutes per session, available by redeeming a code printed in the back of the study book

You won’t be striving harder, but instead trusting more deeply the Faithful One who is so worthy of our utter dependence. In Him you’ll find the comfort and peace you need to sustain you. • Leader helps to guide questions and discussions within small groups • 6 weeks of personal study to be completed between the 7 group sessions • Access to 7 teaching videos, approximately 25–30 minutes per session, available by redeeming a code printed in the back of the study book
