Reformation: Grace, Faith, Scripture

This Bible study includes 12 short video vignettes, each 3-4 minutes, from the 2017 Reformation celebration film, A Return to Grace: Luther's Life and Legacy. As participants view the introductory clip for each lesson, they will deepen their understanding of Reformation history and connect with what their church believes, teaches, and practices today. The kit includes materials that can be used for both traditional Bible class settings and shorter study opportunities. The lessons are:

Grace

• The Beginning: Baptism
• God's Undeserved Gift: Justification by Grace
• Not for Sale: Forgiveness in Christ Alone
• Christ's Body and Blood: Holy Communion

Faith

• Forgiven but Not Perfect: Saint and Sinner
• Witness Together: Augsburg Confession
• Join and Sing to the Lord: Congregational Worship
• All Serve Christ: Vocation

Scripture

• One Authority: Scripture Alone
• Bold Witness: Confidence Drawn From Scripture
• Not by Force: Power of the Word
• My Bible: The Bible Into People's Hands

All components for organizing and leading this study are included on the CD: PDF, .doc, and RTF versions of the student lessons and leader's guides, which contain the student lessons with answers.

PLEASE NOTE: Because of the size of the video files, those who purchase the downloadable version of this Bible study will be able to access the video files from a link provided in the README file.

This Bible study also includes a promotional toolkit with bulletin inserts, presentation slides, full-color posters, and various graphics (view sample here). The toolkit includes convenient bulletin inserts for each of the 12 clips when congregations wish to show the vignettes as part of worship.
