Letters of Support and Encouragement:
Free Come Alive & Stay Alive Bible Studies Series.
Come Alive - With Jesus - This "Come Alive" series is specifically designed for people wanting to know what Christianity is all about and what the Bible teaches. Work your way through these studies alone, or as part of a group.
Stay Alive - With Jesus - Have you ever wondered what the Bible says about the future? Or what heaven might be like? Or what happens to people when they die? And what about living in the here and now; does the Bible have any guidelines on how to manage your time, money and health?
These, and many more questions, are answered in these fifteen study guides covering some of the great truths of the Bible.
Though the Stay Alive lessons are prepared to follow the Come Alive series, they can be studied independently.
Leader’s Guides for Simple Church Gatherings.
These leader’s guides capture real group life, where secular and unchurched people’s lives are being changed. People need the Everlasting Gospel of Jesus Christ. People also need safe and authentic friendship with Christians.
The Serendipity Bible for group is an excellent resource to have. But it is not necessary to lead a Simple Church. The leader's guides are recommended.
The Andrews Study Bible
is an excellent resource to use in your simple church. The commentary portion provides excellent tips for those difficult passages and verses.
