      10 Keys for Unlocking the Bible Leader's Guide - Colin S. Smith

      Leaders

      INTRODUCTION

      Hosting a Ten Keys study is an exciting way to introduce others to the Bible. You can do this either in a large-group setting or by opening your home to a small group of neighbors and friends. These notes will explain how you can make your study most effective.

      OPENING THE BIBLE

      Ten Keys is designed to open up the Bible to people with little or no prior knowledge of it. Mature Christians will benefit from it, but it was conceived with the beginner in mind.

      When you invite people to your study, tell them it is an opportunity to understand the message of the Bible and that they do not need to have any prior knowledge or experience. Many people today know little about the Bible, but they have a general respect for it. You may be surprised at how appealing your invitation will be.

      The Ten Keys study makes no attempt to defend the Bible or to argue that it is true. It simply explains what the Bible says in its own terms. God’s Word is like living seed, and where it is sown it will bring a harvest.

      BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS

      Ten Keys offers the opportunity for a small group to discover the Bible together. As the leader, try to create an open atmosphere where people can freely share their own questions, issues, and insights.

      Over the ten weeks of this study, group members will build trust and openness with one another that will help them in their spiritual lives. Some of their greatest insights will be gained from one another. Sharing a meal or at least a dessert together is an important part of the Ten Keys experience. Food fosters friendship and helps to build a sense of community.
