Considering the troubles of the world, people are starving for the word of God. As a vehicle to encourage people to attend and participate in bible study at church, the critical questions to be asked are: What is a 12-Week Bible Study from the Devotional Book “Beyond the Sunday Sermon?” What is Dr. Ronald Holmes’ latest book?
In 2023, Dr. Ronald Holmes facilitated 12 weeks of bible study at First Timothy Baptist Church in person and online utilizing the devotional book “Beyond the Sunday Sermon.” Thereafter, Holmes decided to write the book, “A 12-Week Bible Study from the Devotional Book “Beyond the Sunday Sermon” to help churches coordinate a bible study in a 60-minute format utilizing PowerPoint slides, gospel songs and scenes from popular movies to contextualize the learning.
This book is an extension to the book titled “Beyond the Sunday Sermon: A 52-Week Devotional from the teaching and preaching of Rev. Dr. R.B. Holmes Jr.” The book provides samples of 12 bible study messages. It also provides an outline of each bible study so key participants of the church such as ministers, facilitators and technology support staff can easily understand their roles and follow the services as planned.
Additionally, the book covers a wide range of stories from the books of Matthew, Hebrews, Exodus, and others. After you read this book, you will know some of God’s miracles for people who trusted him and how these blessings apply to you. This book is now published! It is available to purchase on Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble and AuthorHouse.
