God the Deliverer Study Guide plus Streaming Video

Throughout the Bible, we find two parallel dramas unfolding. There is the lower story, which describes the events from our human perspective. But there is also an upper story, which reveals how the events unfold from God’s perspective.

This Study Guide includes:

• Individual streaming access to the study’s 8 video sessions
• Group discussion questions
• Personal reflection questions
• Video outline and notes
• Scripture readings

The goal of God the Deliverer is to introduce you to these lower and upper stories as told in the Old Testament books of 1 Samuel through Malachi. As you read these narratives—featuring characters such as Samuel, Saul, David, Jeremiah, Daniel, Esther, Ezra, and Nehemiah—you will see how God has been weaving our lower story into the greater upper story that he has been writing.
