Jeremiah: A 12-Week Study. This item is unavailable.Jeremiah: A 12-Week Study

"A tremendous resource for those wanting to study and teach the Bible with an understanding of how the gospel is woven throughout Scripture." ―Bryan Chapell, Pastor, Grace Presbyterian Church

The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word.

These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” show how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture.

With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on every page of the Bible.

Appointed to be a prophet before he was born, Jeremiah faithfully preached God’s Word in the face of confusion, opposition, and persecution. When instructed, he brought the message of God’s righteous judgment against sin to the nation of Israel, but not without reminding them of God’s covenant faithfulness.

In this 12-week study, Matthew Harmon highlights key biblical themes, clarifies crucial doctrines, and draws personal applications from the book of Jeremiah―reminding us of the truth that God’s proclamation of judgment is always intended to spur his people to seek salvation in and through him.
