God's Urgent Call


The theme for this quarter reminds us that God continues to speak to us through God’s written word. God calls ordinary people from diverse backgrounds to make a difference. From the days of the judges to the prophets to the early church leaders, God called and the faithful answered.

UNIT 1 • CALLED TO BE STRONG: The four lessons in this unit are drawn from the Book of Judges and continue the history of Israel after Joshua’s death. God raised up a series of national leaders called judges. Empowered by God, judges delivered the people from their enemies.

UNIT 2 • CALLING OF THE PROPHETS: The five lessons in this unit focus on how God called various prophets at different times for specific purposes. Included in this unit are the calls and responses of Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Amos.

UNIT 3 • CALLS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT: The four lessons in this unit focus on how God continued to work through ordinary people. Their witness reminded the early church that God assures the success of those who answer God’s call. The unit highlights the calls of Stephen, Philip, Ananias, and Peter.
