In the book of Ephesians, Paul reminds us that Jesus longs for the day he will be united with the church-his bride in all her beauty. Paul's letter celebrates the beauty of the church. Ephesians gives us wonderful examples and basic overviews of a Christian life. Paul shows us how to walk worthy of Christ as we live our life for God. Paul's focus on the beauty of the church reminds us that through salvation we become a part of God's family: a place where we can experience true belonging. The Lucado Life Lessons series brings the New Testament to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational storytelling, profound reflections, and space for journaling. Revised and updated, Lucado Life Lessons continues to be one of the best-selling study guide series available for small groups and individuals.
I like the Max Lucado devotional books, but if you're looking for something in-depth, these aren't really for you. They are great for mom's groups, etc, but I think I prefer something with a little more meat to it. This is mostly just reading a passage in the Bible with questions about how the verses apply to your life.
So far so good for our small group of High School Guys

Great Small Group Study

I found this to be a good small group study as well as a good exegetical study of the book of Ephesians. In order to maximize the benefit, this study requires all small group members to do the work ahead of time.
Ephesians Bible Study

This book is wonderful for small groups. It is easy to understand, encourages your personal thoughts, and makes it easy to participate for the young Christian as well as the older Christian. Not young or old in age but in Christian living! Great book! Joan
Excellent for Small Groups

I have used a number of Max Lucado small group materials. Comparing his work to other small group resources I find it to be well written and very helpful in getting our group to have a lively discussion. Some small group material only reviews the Biblical text and does not require much thought. Lucado will develop questions that cause the group to expand upon the text and provoke good discussions. I recommend the study on Ephesians for a small group that has a spiritual maturity that is advanced beyond new believer status.
