    About this ebook

    Pastor Colin Smith's four-volume masterpiece moves you past Bible stories to understand the Bible as one story--the glorious, unbroken account of Christ's work to redeem a fallen world. With this accompanying Study Guide, you'll be able to make the journey even more rewarding. The Volume One Study Guide matches the first volume of the book series, and will help you unlock the Bible Story from Genesis to Nehemiah.

    Unlocking the Bible Story Study Guides will help you:

    • Focus you or your small group's study time to be as productive and rewarding as it can possibly be
    • Enrich your understanding of the book and your comprehension of God's Word
    • Apply the book's lessons in ways that will change your life forever


    Once you've finished volume 1, volume 2 is highly recommended as it will complete your study in the Old Testament--you or your small group could move through the entire Old Testament by using volumes 1 and 2 in less than a year. Then dive into the New Testament study guides by using volumes 3 and 4.

      story.

      LAUNCHING

      1. What do you think most people believe to be the purpose of life? What factors lead you to this conclusion?

      Who is God and why does it matter?

      Who am I and why am I here?

      EXPLORING

      The Author Takes the Stage

      2. There are two options to explain our existence: We were created by God or are an accident of history. What are the implications of each?

      3. Many in our world today believe that humans are a product of evolutionary forces. How is this affecting our view of human life?

      4. If God owns you, what difference should it make in the way you live your life? What difference should it make in the way you face troubling situations?

      Understanding Ourselves

      5. Read Genesis 1:27. How do human beings reflect God’s nature and image?

      The Kiss of Life

      6. We are made in God’s image. We are totally dependent on Him for our next breath. How do these two statements provide a healthy view of ourselves and others? Which do you need to grasp better?

      Taking a Walk with God

      7. Adam and Eve walked with God in the Garden of Eden. What are some of the similarities and differences between Adam and Eve’s relationship with God and ours today?

      A Place Called Home

      8. God provided a place, a purpose, and a partner for Adam and Eve (pages 25–27). What difference does it make to know that these are gifts from God?

      Spotlight on Christ

      9. Jesus said that He came to give us life to the full (John 10:10). In what ways has a relationship with Christ enriched your life?

      APPLYING

      10. What is something new you learned about God or yourself from this study? How will it affect the way you live this week?

      This week, when you encounter someone who annoys you, remind yourself that the person is created in God’s image. Note how it changes your view of that person.

      When praying this week, thank God for your place, your purpose, and your partner.

      LAUNCHING

      1. How would our world be different if sin had not entered the picture?

      If God made everything good, why is the world as it is today?

      EXPLORING

      Reading Your Opponent’s Plays

      2. Satan used three strategies to tempt Adam and Eve. Describe each in one
