Sessions with Isaiah: What to Do When the World Caves In

By James M. King and James Marcus King

Sessions with Isaiah is a nine-session study unit designed to explore how an individual, a people, or a nation responds spiritually to great stress. Each session is followed by a thought-provoking page of questions that allow for a deeper experience of the scriptural passages. These resource pages can be used by seminar leaders during preparation and group discussion, as well as in individual Bible study. The book of Isaiah begins in the years of national stress when, under various kings, Israel was surrounded by more powerful neighbors and foolishly sought foreign alliances rather than dependence on Yahweh. It continues with the natural result of that unfaithfulness: conquest by the great power in the region, Babylon, and the captivity of many of Israel's best and brightest in that foreign land. The book concludes anticipating their return to the land of promise and strong admonitions about the people's conduct-but we also hear God's reassuring messages of comfort and restoration, offered to all who repent.
