| Description: | Covenant is a 24-week (broken into 3 8-week sections) in-depth, group Bible study in which people read and discuss the Bible together; learning how to love God—and others—better. It differs from other Bible studies in that it emphasizes the biblical concept of covenant as a unifying pattern throughout the entire Bible. It underscores the unique relationship that God chooses with us as God's people. The purpose of this study is to engage participants in conversations about this unique and special relationship—as well as our relationships with each other and the world around us—as we study the Bible together. The program covers both Testaments—discussing books from each in a way that shows the interconnectedness of scripture as a whole. The goal of the study is to deepen our understanding of scripture while also helping us respond together in answering God’s call to a faithful life in Jesus. So it embraces a learning experience that builds trust in others and confidence in scripture for each participant—leveraging not just scriptural examples but also personal memories of God’s faithful love. Covenant is based on the understanding that it is through community—through shared reflection and engagement—that we can best discover the Bible’s transformative power. It is rooted in the simple idea that we live well when we love well. Each episode will feature a conversation between the hosts and a Biblical scholar, highlighting personal thoughts and experiences. For greater flexibility, the entire study is broken into three 8-week segments: Creating, Living, and Trusting. Video segments are about 25 minutes each CREATING (Episodes 1-8) 1.
