LifeChange Series - John

Christians have a lifelong goal: To become like Christ. This involves change, and change isn't always easy. But the more you know of God's purposes for you, the more you can experience His joy and participate in His plan.
The LifeChange Series of Bible studies on books of the Bible can help you grow in Christlikeness through a life-changing encounter with God's Word. You'll benefit in these important ways:
You'll gain a firm understanding of the book  its historical context, purpose, structure and meaning;
You'll apply its powerful, relevant wisdom to needs and issues you are currently working through; and
You'll acquire personal study skills and a thirst to return to the book on your own  so you can keep going deeper into its life-transforming truths.

John-
Exactly who was Jesus? A wise teacher? A prophet? A fake? During Jesus' lifetime, no one understood his mission, but with a few carefully chosen incidents, the Apostle John unfolds the truth. Throughout the centuries, this portrait has drawn men and women into committed belief and intimate relationship with the Son of God.

  Study Aids

This study was effective because it taught our group about how to study scripture inductively. I appreciated that there was commentary already included in the study so that we didn't have to use outside sources. I also really liked that the book emphazied practical application.
