It’s finally launch day for our new resource, The Good Citizen Study Guide! As I have spoken in hundreds of churches and ministry settings about Christian citizenship, I have asked pastors this question, “What, in your opinion, is the most effective way to disciple Christians in the area of citizenship.” The answer was practically unanimous: a Sunday school or small group resource that will give Christians the opportunity to discuss Biblical principles related to government in the context of relationship and to encourage each other to follow Jesus in this area. Well, just in time for the 4th of July, here’s that resource!
In The Good Citizen Study Guide, I walk through a Biblical, Dave Ramsey-style guide for engaging in our role as citizen in an increasingly divided America. This resource includes eight teaching videos to assist the group or class leader.
Here’s the link to the the intro video, and a link to purchase the study guide..
I am interested in offering this at our church. How long is each video session? Is there a facilitator’s guide? Will the videos be provided via streaming or DVD?
Thanks for your interest in the study guide! Each video session is approximately 10 minutes long and is designed to introduce the topic and give direction to the discussion about that topic. The videos are provided via streaming (Vimeo), and you can access them here: https://www.goodcitizen.us/gs-videos/. Instead of a facilitator’s guide, I opted for a brief section at the beginning of the study guide explaining the outline for each class and clearly setting out Biblical expectations and principles for the study together. I did that so all participants could see it and not just the facilitator. Feel free to reach out to me at josh@goodcitizen.us with other questions.
