Preparing for the 2016 Gathering: Christian Character Bible Studies

A Study of Identity, Humility, and Community

Series Summary 
This Bible study was developed to prepare youth and adults attending the 2016 LCMS Youth Gathering, but it can be used outside of that context, as well. It explores the concepts of identity, humility, and community in Christ alone. Four biblical characters have been chosen as case studies: Joseph the son of Jacob, Ruth, Mary the mother of Jesus, and Peter.

The goal is to help the reader understand their own life in Christ by considering these examples. May the Lord guide and bless your study!
