Excerpt

• It can be scheduled as one 12-week study or as two six-week studies, with an optional break between the two portions for those who prefer a shorter study.
• The first portion, Daniel chapters 1-6, examines the life of Daniel in an extremely contemporary way and models how believers can develop enduring integrity in an enticing world.
• The second portion, Daniel chapters 7–12, explores prophecies from the time of Daniel through the second coming of Christ.
• The video teaching segments on the DVDs are essential to the Member Book study. As Beth teaches from a chapter each week, the video messages provide an important backdrop for the following week’s Member Book study.

• Offer through your women’s ministry at convenient times and locations such as weeknights, during midweek activities at your church, or Sunday evening discipleship, especially when childcare is offered.
• During the summer, schedule the first portion—the life of Daniel— as a study for Sunday School teachers, schoolteachers and educators, and community outreach following VBS.
• Schedule the second portion—the words of prophecy— as a kickoff to fall semester, or schedule as a 12-week study that concludes before Christmas holidays.
• Promote to women as an extremely contemporary study that helps them thrive in our modern-day culture without being defiled by it.
• Offer both a daytime study for stay-at-home moms and retirees, as well as an evening study for working women. (Be sure to coordinate use of the DVDs in the Leader Kit when offering multiple studies.)
• Look for off-campus settings such as health clubs, community centers, apartment clubhouses, Christian schools, as well as homes of study participants.
