About the "Adult  Bible Studies for Student Group Study"....
This ongoing Bible study program is presented in quarterly segments of 13 weeks each. Bible-based, Christ-focused, and United Methodist-approved, this curriculum is typically used in adult Sunday school classes, Wednesday evening Bible study, and small-group based studies. Each week’s lesson includes:

   A purpose statement that offers a focus for the session
   The NRSV Scripture passage to be studied
   A key verse to be memorized
   A lesson that applies the Scripture text to our daily lives

An official resource for The United Methodist Church, approved by the General Board of Discipleship and published quarterly by Cokesbury, Adult Bible Studies is designed to help adults understand the meaning and authority of the Bible for Christian life. Lessons are based on the International Sunday School Lessons for Christian Teaching, copyright © 2003 by the Committee on the Uniform Series.

For students, the Adult Bible Studies site has a wealth of interesting resources such as an Audiocassette, Current Quarter Contents, Current Author and Supplemental Resources.

The site also has Other Bible Study Resources, Message Board, and Frequently Asked Questions.
