Crazy Grace for Crazy Times (Bible Study Book)

Crazy Grace for Crazy Times Bible Study Book includes small-group experiences for six sessions, personal study opportunities during the week, applicable Scripture, "How to Use This Study," and tips for leading and hosting a group.

It's a complicated world. And it's only getting more complicated, especially for disciples striving to live as Jesus wants us to live. When faced with current challenges, believers often long for the good old days of the New Testament church. In reality, the culture and the church were just as crazy then as they are today—rampant sexual immorality, racial prejudice, social and economic segregation, and arguments and divisions over favorite spiritual leaders.

Ministering to the church in Corinth, the apostle Paul addressed many of these issues. His first letter to the church contained this life-changing truth: the heartbeat and lifeblood of the Christian life is grace. This study provides a clear and compelling path to the kind of grace that leads to compassionate ministry and influential witness even on the margins of life.

1 Just Grace—That's All (1 Corinthians 1:1-9)
2 Wise Fools (1 Corinthians 1: 18,29-31)
3 Team (1 Corinthians 3:5-9; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14,27)
4 Bringing Sexy Back (1 Corinthians 6:9-20)
5 When Heaven Comes to Earth (1 Corinthians 9:19-23)
