Gospel 201: Growing and Thriving with Jesus

Jeff Dodge’s Gospel 201 helps readers take the next step in growing and thriving in their relationship with Jesus.

Jesus had thousands of people listen to him and begin to follow him, but did they really hear what Jesus was saying and continue to truly follow him? The same questions apply to us. When you become a follower of Jesus, the future looks bright. Your sins are forgiven, and your future is assured! But when life intrudes, it’s easy to get discouraged and distracted. What is the next step in growing in faith? It’s not just hearing, it’s listening!

Gospel 201 takes a deep dive into Jesus’s parable of the sower to challenge readers to become true hearers of God’s Word and grow to be more like him. This study offers practical ways to go deeper into faith as participants grow in understanding Jesus’s message and taking it to heart.

• Companion to bestselling Gospel 101 which serves as an introductory-level course on the message of redemption.
• Practical, easy-to-use, small group layout with six self-contained lessons, including discussion questions, help participants grow deeper in faith.
• Encourages participants to connect with others through small group study and survey questions that will bring faith to their community.
