Isaiah

Isaiah is usually read as a book of prophecy, but this study presents its author as a preacher of the gospel. At the center of his message is the claim that God saves sinners. Through the text, Jonathan Gibson leads readers back to the foundational truths of the gospel, including the fact that every person needs rescue and needs God every day.

Across the book, Isaiah makes clear that people cannot depend on themselves. Real hope comes from turning away from one's own path and turning toward God in faith. Good News for the Wayward and Wandering, the subtitle of this study, asks readers to reshape their lives around what is good, just, and merciful. The aim is a change of heart and purpose, a turning away from sin toward godliness and a reliance on Christ.

The guide contains ten in-depth lessons. Each one includes discussion questions, a short article, and a section on practical application. It includes leader's notes and can be used for one-to-one discipleship, small groups, or larger gatherings.

This volume belongs to The Gospel-Centered Life in the Bible series, produced in partnership with Serge. The series traces how the gospel story appears across both the Old and New Testaments.
