If you've used New Day for Christian Women in the past,
and are wondering what happened to your resource, don't despair...
this new format will still work well for women's groups that choose to use it!
New Day for Christian Women has made the change to New Day for Christians. In a newly
formed partnership with Global Ministries, New Day for Christians will include information on how
congregations can truly claim the identity of being a "Global Mission Congregation."
Resource for both men and women with stories about the two Congo nations!
New Day for Christians includes writings from both men and women and features
stories from Regional Ministers who recently visited the Congo nations as well as stories from
mission workers.
Small group study material suitable for groups of all sizes and shapes!
New Day now offers six sessions instead of eight making it perfect for Lenten study, a sermon series/small
group discussion with Elders, a fall all-church Bible study curriculum for teens and adults together, small group material for
a mission committee seeking to prepare the congregation to become a Global Mission Congregation, a book group selection
for a small group, for established small groups or new small groups - even as an opening meditation source. Also included is
a section that explains how to use the material for all types of study groups.
Expanded biblical perspective!
New Day reviews Biblical literature from Hebrew Bible history texts, prophets,
and wisdom literature as well as from the Gospel and Epistle writings expanding on the resource's
previous format for Bible studies that used smaller, targeted groups of bible texts.
New Day for Christians magazine offers the perfect balance of
biblical reflection, stories from a recent trip taken by Disciples of
Christ Regional Ministers to Africa, and of the connection that our
congregations have to Christians making a difference in the lives of
their communities in their daily walks of faith in North America and
beyond.
Included in the magazine is a section that explains how to use the
magazine for various types of group settings. A large map that
illustrates countries in Africa with which the Disciples of Christ
share a global witness helps group participants understand the
geographical and economical problems faced by individuals and
congregations who live there. An online Leader’s Guide is also
available to assist you in working with small groups.
