GOSPEL FOUNDATIONS

Adults
Students

Gospel Foundations is a brand new Bible study resource that tells the story of God’s plan to redeem sinners through Jesus—the gospel. From the creators of The Gospel Project, this six-volume resource is comprehensive in scope yet concise enough to be completed in just one year. Each seven-session volume is video-enhanced to help your group engage in discussion with a clear understanding of how each text fits into the storyline of Scripture.


It is a perfect resource for discipleship groups or small groups that are flexible in their meeting sequence.  There is a version for adults and one for students.  

Here are some of its features
  • One-year, video-enhanced overview of the gospel storyline of Scripture
  • Separate age-appropriate editions for adults and students
  • Six volumes of study that clearly separate the thematic elements of the gospel story
  • Seven small-group sessions per volume with accompanying videos that enable participants to engage with the story of Scripture
  • Individual study opportunities for ongoing spiritual growth
  • Promotional content and video
  • Leader tools to help facilitate the group experience


Here are the themes of each volume:

  • Volume 1: THE GOD WHO CREATES (Genesis) Explore what happened “in the beginning” as God laid the foundation of the earth and then established a path for the redemption of His people through His covenant with Abraham.
  • Volume 2: A WANDERING PEOPLE (Exodus - Judges) See how God rescued His people and revealed to them their need for a greater redemption still—the redemption of their hearts from sin.
  • Volume 3: LONGING FOR A KING (1 Samuel - 1 Kings)Learn how God was faithful to provide Kings who would lead His people faithfully, but they could not overthrow their greatest oppressor—the sinfulness of their hearts.
  • Volume 4: THE COMING RESCUE (Hosea - Malachi)Witness how God pursued His people with a promise—the rescue from their captivity to sin and the coming of the Redeemer.
  • Volume 5: GOD WITH US (The Gospels)See how God’s plan of redemption culminated in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, the Rescuer, God Himself.
  • Volume 6: THE KINGDOM ON EARTH (Acts-Revelation)Realize that God’s plan of redemption culminates not in an ending, but a new beginning, - a new creation where God will live forever with His People.
