Most Bible study books I've read in groups have gone something like this—
"God so loved the world that…"
1. What did God love?
2. How much did he love it, a little or a lot?
This is why I tend to eschew adult Sunday School and women's Bible studies. But I'm back in the saddle again. Thankfully, this series goes a bit beyond that, although there are traces of the "answer the obvious" questions. It's fairly in depth, as far as these things go, with some historical background and lots of questions, but too many of the questions involve the typical, "And what did that verse we just told you to read say?"
