Mark’s gospel has an urgency to it that’s hard to ignore. It's as if he is breathless, trying to get the information out as quickly as he can. A few decades have passed since Jesus’ ministry, and with persecution intensifying, some believers were tempted to compromise or simply give up on being a follower of the Messiah. So, Mark needed to take the early Christians back to the basics and get them ready to move!In this six-session study (video streaming code included), pastor Jeff Manion takes you and your group through the gospel of Mark to answer such urgent questions about the Christian faith as: Who is this Jesus? What does he expect of me? Is suffering a normal part of the Christian life? What will encourage and strengthen my trust in Jesus? These questions are not born of a lack of faith but serve to strengthen and stabilize our relationship with the Savior. So, lace up your running shoes. Open your heart and mind. And come with your questions! Get ready to move as Mark’s Gospel reveals what it means to follow Jesus.This study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience, including: The study guide itself—a 40 Day reading plan through Mark with discussion and personal reflection questions, video notes, and a leader's guide.

Want to shake up the way you read the Bible? Take the New Testament Challenge! The New Testament Challenge is a simple but revolutionary idea: What if you have a New Testament with the books arranged in a disruptive yet insightful sequence, and you are challenged to read it all the way through? The New Testament Challenge Leader's Kit has three components that help you lead the challenge to read through the entire New Testament in eight weeks: The Bible you'll read is called The Books of the Bible: New Testament. It contains the entire New Testament, but the books are arranged with each of the four gospels at the beginning of a group of related books, which helps readers gain insights and make connections between books in a way that is both revealing and fascinating. The text itself is presented without verse numbers, chapter numbers, or other things that interrupt the reading. (One copy is included in the Leader's Kit. Additional copies sold separately.) The New Testament Challenge Study Journal provides the 40-day reading plan and journaling pages to record your questions, responses, and insights as you read through the New Testament. The real power of this experience takes place as you gather in community, sharing in a book club-style discussion what you observed and wondered about as you read. (One copy is included in the Leader's Kit. Additional copies sold separately.) Your group will conclude each session by watching Jeff Manion in The New Testament Challenge Video Study as he introduces what you will be reading in the coming week. Take the challenge! Read through the entire New Testament in a way you have never experienced before, and encounter God in a fresh new way. Sessions include: Luke–Acts (11:00) Luke–Acts, 1–2 Thessalonians (16:00) 1–2 Corinthians, Galatians, Romans (14:00) Romans, Colossians, Ephesians, Philemon, Philippians, 1 Timothy, Titus, 2 Timothy (17:00) Matthew (11:00) Hebrews, James, Mark (13:00) 1–2 Peter, Jude, John (13:00) 1–3 John, Revelation (14:00) This kit contains: NIV, The Books of the Bible, New Testament The New Testament Challenge Study Journal The New Testament Challenge Video Study DVD (streaming video access included)
