New Bible Study Guide Series Explores “Getting to Really Know God”

Jan. 25, 2011 - PRLog -- The United Church of God’s new Bible Study Guide series “Getting to Really Know God” examines what God reveals about Himself and some practical tips from the Bible about how to walk with God in a close relationship every day.

This six-lesson series explores questions such as:

•   What single word best defines God’s character?
•   Did the Father or the Son appear and speak to people in the Old Testament?
•   What is meant by God creating man “in His own image”?
•   What seven great lessons does the creation teach us?
•   What was the main reason for the life and death of Jesus Christ?
•   What is a major key to making your Bible study personally profitable?
•   What is the ultimate, most powerful way to stay close to God?

The lessons include links to many helpful related resources and provide practical “Apply Now” sections. The series was researched and written by Don Hooser, a United Church of God minister now living in Texas.

This new series on getting to know God is added to lessons covering a wide variety of topics, from answered prayer to the end times, from the armor of God to worry, and from gambling to keys to a happy marriage.

Mike Bennett, UCG editorial content manager, said, “The Bible is a unique book full of inspiration, wisdom and practical answers. But it doesn’t claim to be an easy book. It can be intimidating and overwhelming on first glance. These Bible Study Guides are designed to help. Our authors search the Scriptures with the student in mind, considering what practical answers you need to deal with the real challenges in your life today.”

The site is frequently updated with new material, and so students are encouraged to sign up for the Bible Study Guides e-mail newsletter. E-mail subscribers will receive updates about all the new lessons, as well as other relevant Bible study material. It’s all totally free, and subscribers can cancel anytime they like.
