Agenda This is an eight-session course. Each session includes an interactive video that charts the Bible’s big story: First – your hosts will welcome you and introduce the topic of the session before hitting play on the first half of the video. Then – halfway through the session, there’s space to pause, break into small groups and discuss a few lines from the Bible that relate to the video. Finally – you finish the session video, which ends with a closing reflection that invites you to think about how the session has resonated with you.
