Grow your faith. Transform your life.
The Kit includes a teacher’s book and a commentary that supplement and complement the Adult Bible Studies student book.
The teacher’s book provides biblical background, exposition, and suggestions for leading weekly group discussions and nurturing spiritual practices among class members.

Based on the trusted Abingdon Basic Bible Commentary, the Concise Commentary provides expert biblical commentary for the focal Bible passages used in Adult Bible Studies. The commentary includes each Sunday’s focal Bible passages, unit introductions, and expert commentary on each passage. Plus, you can pronounce everything correctly with the included pronunciation guide for Bible names and places.

Cultivate a deeper relationship with God through Adult Bible Studies. Each weekly lesson offers background and focal Scriptures, key verses, and doctrinally sound and relevant biblical interpretation and application in a readable font size. Annual plans provide comprehensive coverage of the Bible, special lessons during the church seasons of Advent/Christmas and Lent/Easter, and suggestions for developing spiritual practices such as prayer, worship, community, and service, among many others. Adult Bible Studies is a reliable companion and guide for learning and growing in the Christian faith.
Spring 2025 Theme: Living Faith
This spring, our Bible lessons follow the theme “Living Faith.” They offer a series of lessons in two units during Lent and the weeks following that encourage us to consider what we need to let go of and what we need to take on as followers of Jesus.
With the help of the Adult Bibles Studies Teacher/Commentary Kit, and DVD, your group will embrace the fact that it’s not just about learning - it’s about living out biblical teachings.
