Guidelines is a unique Bible reading resource that offers four months of in-depth study written by leading scholars. Contributors are drawn from around the world, as well as the UK, and represent a stimulating and thought-provoking breadth of Christian tradition.

Instead of the usual dated daily readings, Guidelines provides weekly units, broken into at least six sections, plus an introduction giving context for the passage and a final section of points for thought and prayer. On any day you can read as many or as few sections as you wish, to fit in with work or home routine. As well as a copy of Guidelines, you will need a Bible. Each contributor also suggests books for further study. Published every four months (in January, May and September) and edited by Katharine Dell and Jeremy Duff, this issue includes Andrew Gregory on Luke chapters 9--19, Katharine Dell on Ruth, Sarah Tillett on Earth Keeping, Grace Emmerson on 2 Chronicles, Jeremy Duff on Colossians, James Aitken on Judges 1--8, Rosemary Dymond on Christmas, Paula Gooder on New Year and the Psalms.
