Winter 2023 Study: From Captivity to Restoration
(Covering the Prophets, Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther)
by Mike Brooks, Andrea Burke, Andrew Hall, Shaq Hardy, Leslie Hudson, James Jackson

The consequences of sin against a holy God wreak havoc upon people. The nation of Judah experienced decades in captivity. But even in the land of their exile, God worked to provide for and restore His people both physically and spiritually. As the Old Testament narrative draws to a close, groups will see the gracious faithfulness of God on display and hear His promise of hope that draws our attention to Jesus, our Savior from all sin, shame, and guilt.

The Gospel Project Daily Discipleship Guide - Large Print® is designed to help you grow personally and in community.

• Begin with personal time in the Word.
  Personal discipleship is enhanced through suggested daily readings, which lay a foundation for what will be explored as a group, and the Seven Arrows Bible-reading method, which builds effective Bible study habits.
• Study the Bible with your Bible.
  Using your preferred translation will enhance your understanding and add to the richness of the group discussion.
• Give everyone access.
  First-time visitors, new believers, and mature Christians can all engage meaningfully.
• Discuss and apply in community.
  The discussion guide includes questions for a variety of learning styles.
• Disciple holistically.
  The “Head, Heart, Hands” model of application allows for deeper discussion of how what we learn shapes how we feel and how we live.
• Use your phones or tablet.
  An eBook version (not in large print) is also available for those who prefer a paperless approach to Bible study.
