Twelve Ordinary Men Study Guide

We have been looking for ways to make the lessons and stories of the life and times of Christ more applicable to todays life. This course does that! The workbook is long and can easily allow you to make the classroom experience last beyond 14 weeks. The workbook breaks each lesson into thought provoking sessions with 4 sections of homework and a daily reading assignment with the questions. The sections each work a different angle for the material and work directly with a chapter in the book and the scripture readings during the book. The first section - Another Look - has the reader review the chapter The second section - Biblical Connections - works with the reader on the scriptures used by MacArthur in the chapter. The scriptures come from both the old and new testaments to truly provide you with an overall view of the plan of God The third section - Highlighting the Lesson - focus on the central points made by MacArthur The fourth section - Lasting Implications - helps the student apply the chapter and the scriptures to their own life. We used this in our older generation Sunday school class. The participation kept growing each week and we were ended up with participants across the generations and lively, thought provoking discussion. I highly recommend this as a Sunday school class for adults.

Great book ... makes you truly appreciate how the original 12 disciples felt & just how incredible YOU can make the same difference.

Great

The author truly is objective and presents facts as known either by church history or what can be gleaned from the scriptures. It allows you, the reader, to understand the time period these men were living in as well as what Christ had to do in order to teach, disciple and send these men out into the world as His representatives. Excellent.

Loved this book. Bought it for a Bible study with family. Great resource. Good reading. Would recommend.

In partnership with the book, this makes a very thorough study of the Apostles, their discipleship, choice by Christ, and how not only their lives were changed but he world as we know it. This departs from MacArthur's usual bible study in that it set up to be a daily study and has dedicated questions for each day in addition to a full study section. There are options you can use, though, to allow for use in a less intense approach, such as only answering the first two sections' questions. Overall, I love MacArthur's complete and insightful explanations of the scripture.

Love it

I love studying the Bible. This is a great aid.

This item came very quick. I was very pleased and very impressed.
