Adult Bible Studies Winter 2026-2027 Leader Kit

Grow in faith by connecting scripture to life weekly.

Have you ever received difficult news that turned out to be the best thing that could have happened? The Adult Bible Studies Leader Kit for Winter 2026-27 provides Sunday school teachers, small group leaders, and facilitators with everything they need to guide meaningful weekly discussions on the season's theme: "A New Beginning."

This quarter's study takes an honest look at the challenging things God calls us to embrace, including change, repentance, and dying to self, and how those demands are ultimately for our good. Leaders will help their groups explore the life of Jesus, a King born in a stable and put to death as a criminal, whose story is the most surprising and life-changing new beginning the world has ever known.

The kit includes two essential resources: the Teacher's Book and the Concise Commentary.
The Teacher's Book provides rich biblical background, exposition, and practical suggestions for leading each week's group discussion and nurturing spiritual practices among class members. Whether you are a seasoned teacher or leading a group for the first time, the approachable format and depth of preparation material make each lesson rewarding and ready to use.

The Concise Commentary, based on the trusted Abingdon Basic Bible Commentary, delivers expert biblical insight on every focal passage in the Adult Bible Studies curriculum. Each entry includes the Sunday's focal Scripture, unit introductions, and in-depth passage commentary. A pronunciation guide for Bible names and places is also included, so leaders can teach and facilitate discussion with clarity and confidence.

Together, these two resources supplement and complement the Adult Bible Studies Participant Guide, giving leaders the full context and practical tools needed to move a group from simply reading Scripture to genuinely engaging with it.
