ENDORSEMENTS:
‘This is an excellent resource for churches and individuals who desire to “grow in the grace and knowledge of Christ”, and who desire to anchor their biblical faith in the history of the church.’ — IAN HAMILTON
‘This course is perhaps the most significant resource I have encountered in 30 years of Christian ministry. At its core, it is pointing and forcing those leading and those taking part into encountering “The God who is there”.’ — ANDY CHRISTOFIDES
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically, led by Dr. John Snyder, is a 12-week multimedia study that focuses on God’s self-revelation in the Bible, helping the believer to apply the descriptions of God to all of life.
Behold Your God is centered around a twelve-week workbook-style study and 13 video lectures. Each week the student will work through the workbook (five days per week) in preparation for watching the video. Behold Your God can be used as an individual, family, group, or church-wide study.
Each week's video is made up of three sections beginning with a historical introduction. This introduction is a short biographical sketch of the life of a significant figure from Christian history whose ministry illustrates the truths that you have been studying that week. These were all filmed on location in Wales, England, Scotland, and North America.
The heart of each lesson is a 30-minute lesson on one aspect of the Christian life and how it is affected by a biblical rethinking of God’s character. The teaching sessions are led by Dr. John Snyder, pastor of Christ Church in New Albany, Mississippi.
