January Bible Study 2020: Jeremiah - Digital Leader Guide

Jeremiah Digital Leader Guide is a version of the Leader Guide in digital format. It also includes a redeemable download code for access to leader helps, sermon ideas, and promotional materials.

Jeremiah served as a prophet during the final years of the Southern Kingdom (Judah). The Book of Jeremiah not only provides a record of his sermons, discourses, and prophecies but also gives us insight into his life and how to faithfully carry out God’s kingdom work in a challenging world. Jeremiah continually sought to turn people back to God in spite of their refusal to heed his warnings.

The focus of this study is to understand the heart of the prophet and the need for believers today to faithfully proclaim the truth of the gospel. Much like Jeremiah, we live in a world filled with rebellion against God. We too are called to proclaim God’s judgment against sin and offer the hope found in Christ. In this 2020 January Bible Study, we will examine the life and message of Jeremiah to gain insight into how believers today can be faithful to the call of God in our lives.
