The
Disciple II Into the Word Into the World: DVD Set contains ten-minute video segments for each of the thirty-two weekly study sessions and serves as the starting point for the weekly group sessions. They are designed to accomplish several purposes:
To provide a common base of information to group members
To establish the context or setting for a particular portion of Scripture
To allow scholarly presentations on passages, themes, words, and images in Scripture
To connect Scripture and life experience.
Disciple: Into the Word Into the World is the second study in the four-phase Disciple program and is prepared for those who are graduates of
Disciple: Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study.This study proclaims the transforming power of Scripture while teaching Bible study skills that take participants deeper into the Scripture. The importance of keeping Bible study related to witness is reinforced while participants are encouraged to practice spiritual disciplines arising out of Scripture for the purpose of changing habits and transforming lives. The study also emphasizes the rhythm of coming to God and going for God, of being in the Word and in the world individually and corporately. This study understands the growing Christian as under discipline in community and in ministry to the world.
Disciple: Into the Word Into the World approaches all experiences of life as opportunities for faithful witness and service.
