•This quarter’s studies will examine the meaning and cost of true discipleship for believers and their relationship with the Lord.
•Unit 1 is called “Prelude to Discipleship”, and it looks back to the period of Jesus’ appearance on this earth.
•Lesson 1 is the prophecy of His birth, followed by Mary’s expression of praise in lesson 2. In spite of her youth, she showed unusual spiritual maturity.
Two births follow in lesson 3 and 4 – first of John the forerunner and then of Jesus. The two births are often referred to as the most significant births in all of history. Zacharias’s praise of the coming Messiah as well as the shepherds worship of the baby Jesus are described in these lessons.
