Bible Studies for Life provides a Leader Pack that supports and enhances your group study. The group plan includes instructions on how to use each poster and chart.
Provided below is a full-sized sample you can download. (Printing may be difficult, but it can be easily added to a PowerPoint presentation.) To download the poster, click on the image, right-click, and choose SAVE IMAGE AS.

Here’s how each of the Leader Guides references this pack item :
From the Daily Discipleship Guide (p. 168):
Display Pack Item #9. Use this map to show the location of Jerusalem. Later in this session, use this map to give a location for Antioch and Tarsus.
From the Adult Leader Guide (p. 47):
In advance, make copies of Pack Item 4, “The Persecuted Church” handout, and distribute them to your group members. Use the handout to give context to the lesson regarding the worldwide suffering of the church and to encourage prayer for the persecuted church.
From the Young Adult Leader Guide (p. 54):
Distribute the Pack Item #4, “The Persecuted Church” handout. Identify the countries where Christians are persecuted. Encourage them to take the map home and pray each week for a different country.
From the Senior Adult Leader Guide (pp. 58,68,75):
Distribute copies of Item 4: The Persecuted Church handout. (Note: This handout also may be used in session five or six.) This world map shows the countries with the most persecuted Christians. Encourage group members to pray each week for a different country.
From the KJV Adult Leader Guide (p. 52):
In advance, make copies of Pack Item 4, “The Persecuted Church” handout, and distribute them to your group members. Use the handout to give context to the lesson regarding the worldwide suffering of the church and to encourage prayer for the persecuted church.
Promotional Video
Each Leader Pack includes a code to receive all the files digitally: PDFs and customizable versions of the Leader Guide. The digital files also include a promotional video, a “teaser” to pique interest in the study. Share this will your group members or through social media as a way to invite participation in the study.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!! The main purpose of the visuals is to keep the content in front of the learners. I have commented more than once before, but it is getting even worse. Often the wording is so small it cannot be read six feet away, much less the 12-18 feet that is the case in many meeting rooms. This quarter’s pack item 2 – I am, has white letters on a very light background. It is obvious that the visuals are designed by artists who are not aware that the wording must have size and contrast enough to be read across the room. The content people, not artists, must have the final say in the design of lesson visuals.
I will share this with the designer. Thank you.
Do you offer any type of format in video-based, like .mp4? I’d like to continue my young adult ministry program while my college kids are at their various campuses. I use email, and other electronic ways to share our studies.
Please advise.

Dani, I applaud your desire to continue disciplining your young adults even as they are away at college. The Bible Studies for Life Young Adult Leader Pack does include videos from the authors of the studies. The videos are only about eight minutes, and they were created to provide an overview of the session before the group starts their discussion. Here is a sample: https://vimeo.com/179224876
You can get a physical Leader Pack or a digital version.
Feel free to contact me directly if you have questions: Lynn Pryor, Team Leader, Bible Studies for Leader.,
Does LifeWay have a Life Change Mentor program materials? I am looking to start a Life Change Mentoring program in our Church. Looking for some idea’s as well.
God’s blessings, Mark A Rioux
Let me suggest you check out this mentoring study from Chuck Lawless: http://m.lifeway.com/n/Product-Family/Mentor:-How-Along-the-Way-Discipleship-Will-Change-Your-Life.
Thank you for the digital materials. Do you have powerpoints that can be shown during the training, to help Mature Adults focus, and see the topics and subpoints, even scriptures that are being referenced?
Thank you
Bill
Bill, we do not provide PowerPoint slides. The Leader Pack that can be purchased, though, is designed so that all the posters included are large and easily seen from across the room.
I am wondering where the leader extras are for December 9 and beyond? There has been a serious issue in getting Youth information for over a year and now this quarter there is no Adult information. We email this material to our leaders a week out and it’s hard to do when there is none!
Bookmark BibleStudiesforLife.com/AdultExtra: an easy link for all EXTRA! files for Adults.
Where are the “free” visuals. All I see require orders/payments.
Thank you!
A free visual is offered on this page. It’s to make you aware of the other visuals available int he LEader PAck.
