    I am not able to show the videos because they are on Youtube. I can’t download from Youtube. My church is in a rural area and wifi is not available. Is there any other way that I can get the videos?
    Thanks!

    I am disappointed that the Bible verses are not printed in the Daily Discipleship Guide. I understand what you are trying to do, but my class needs the verses printed in the book.
    I spent over 2 hours copying and pasting all of the verses from my leader guide so my class will have the verses readily available to follow along. I do not have the extra time to do this every quarter over the next 3 years.
    We have loved The Gospel Project in the past, but if this doesn’t work well, my class will be switching to another Bible study series.

      I believe this is to encourage learners to use their own Bibles. My class members love being able to read from their own translation.

    I picked up a copy of the Leader Guide last Sunday. I’ll be substitute leading a class on 10/10. To get familiar with the Guide, I was looking at this week’s lesson. On page 47, in the middle of the second paragraph is the digit 2 in green ink. As best as I can figure, this is a footnote per the list on page 55. Am I correct? If so, I found footnotes 8 and 9, but where are the rest (within Unit 2, Session 1)?

    Could we please have an answer guide for group page that has the points and chart on it example unit 1 session 1 in the beginning p.22 at bottom you have a chart that is rather confusing to fill out our group doesnt know what answers to use to fill in the blanks. thank you

    I really miss the scripture printed in the daily discipleship guides. I totally understand your intention here, but having the scripture printed in the guide made them so much more useful. I’ve used Gospel Project for years with my groups and we’ve always purchased learner guides, but the redesign is making me question whether I should continue to buy them.

    I am disappointed with the Fall 2021 Young Kids resources. In past volumes I received a resources CD in which I could print the big question & answer & each units memory verse but this volume was missing the resources CD. I have download the zip files, but the above mentioned resources are not in the zip files. Why are these no longer available?

  7. Bob Beazley says

    I really like the chronological approach in the Gospel Project, but some of our group want the Scripture printed in their guides so we will all have the same translation. If this doesn’t change they want to change to another study. Please consider returning to the previous format with the Scripture included!

    I can’t seem to find a link to the information I can print about missions for this unit (From Creation to Chaos, Older Kids). Can you please provide it for me? Thank you & God Bless.

    My group (and myself) really like reading from different Biblical translations for two reasons:
    It often sheds a different light on the discussion.
    It gives us all a hands-on experience
    Furthermore, the student guide gives readers lots more scripture to read and ponder…much more than the lessons can get through in a single session.
    We all really like TGP, straight up. Has opened our little Baptist minds exponentially

    When is the next quarter material going to show up? The first lesson is next Sunday and I would like to get started.

      I am wondering the same thing. It starts in the morning. I especially wanted the memory verse template for the unit.

      I am looking for it as well – cannot seem to locate it.

    I may be missing something and I apologize if I have, but does the additional resources no longer make these type resources available? This is just an example from Fall of 2021.

    5. A Family Preserved

    I really enjoyed those and these type resources are still available, please show me how to find them.
