Where can I find a downloadable version of each bible study lesson for the spring?
Amber Vaden says
Craig,
Explore the Bible is available in a couple of digital formats. To order a downloadable pdf of each lesson, you’ll want to go to Ministry Grid. It’s our home for digital curriculum: https://ministrygrid.com/curriculum. You can also order Explore the Bible resources as eBooks, which isn’t quite the same as downloading a pdf, but is digital and portable! Go to Lifeway.com/explorethebible and look for the options with “Digital eBook” labels.
I hope one of those options works for your group!
