Title #6 in the Bible Reader Series is a short-term, 7 session study of the book of Hebrews. The series is designed for adult study groups wishing to explore a particular book of the Bible for a limited number of sessions. It uses NRSV. Hebrews--This seven-session study of Hebrews seeks to help Christians grow strong in their faith by pointing out that in Jesus Christ God has provided for them all that is needed for their redemption. The lessons focus on aspects of God's provisions--the living Word, the promise of rest, the Great High Priest, and the new covenant--as well as that which God expects--confident faith, disciplined commitment, and daily Christian living.
