A guided study of early Christian witness

This fifth volume in the That the World May Know series pairs Scripture passages with discussion questions, personal reflection, and Bible-study activities designed to continue between sessions. Its five lessons connect the early church with locations including Caesarea Philippi, Sardis, Pergamum, Ephesus, and Laodicea. Maps, photographs, and sidebars provide additional study material, while the guide is intended to accompany a separately sold video study. The subject is the commitment of early believers amid opposition, explored through biblical, historical, geographical, and cultural context.

  • Adults seeking a structured Bible-study guide for individual or group use.
  • Readers studying the early church and the historical settings connected with biblical passages.
