The Story small group Bible study, by Randy Frazee, provides groups of all sizes the opportunity to discuss and apply what they experienced during the 31 week The Story church campaign.
To understand the Bible, says Frazee, you need bifocal lenses, because two perspectives are involved. The Lower Story, our story, is actually many stories of men and women interacting with God in the daily course of life.
The Upper Story is God’s story, the tale of his great, overarching purpose that puts the individual stories together like panels in one unified mural.
In 31 sessions, The Story video-based small group study opens your eyes to God’s master plan unfolding in the lives of the Bible’s characters-and in your own life.
Discover the heart of God’s Upper Story, and the joy that comes as you align your story with God’s. The Story Participant Guide and DVD are designed for use by groups of all sizes, including small groups and Sunday school and adult education classes, for each of the 31 weeks of The Story church-wide journey.

It normally doesn't take so long to read a book, but our church went through this in 31 weeks. We all read a chapter a week. It will be weird to not be on this book any longer! Great way to get through the Bible in a condensed way. I enjoyed, well done.
Read this chapter by chapter for a 31-week study at my church. I would recommend to new christians as a way to get acclimated to the Bible. Then get them the read thing :)
