Book excerpt: Winter theme: Faith in Action Daniel | Matthew | Acts | Ephesians | Colossians | 1 Timothy | James This winter, Daily Bible Study presents a series of readings following the theme “Faith in Action.” Readings come from Old and New Testament texts. These daily readings, which prepare us for the 13 lessons in Adult Bible Studies, are written by Nan Duerling, Gary Thompson, and Stan Purdum. The Early Church Proclaims Faith in Christ Daily readings in this five-week unit focus on what it means to have faith in Jesus, faith to discern, faith to persevere, and faith to unite and be faithful seekers of the King. A Living Faith in God This four-week unit features readings related to having a sincere faith, a bold faith, and a strong faith, and offers thoughts on prayer for an obedient faith. Self-Controlled, Upright, and Godly Faith The daily readings in this four-week unit unpack what it means when we say that faith without works is dead and how we can live as faithful disciples and fight the good fight of faith with discipline and intention. This ongoing day-by-day Bible study series is presented in quarterly segments. Bible-based, Christ-focused, and United Methodist-approved, this resource helps individuals develop the discipline of studying the Bible every day. It coordinates with the lesson themes of Adult Bible Studies. Each lesson includes: a one-page Bible study for each day of the quarter, along with introductory reflection questions and Commentary on the daily Scripture passage, Life Application, and a concluding prayer. Available in print and eBook format.
