    A Message from the President/CEO . . .

    Greetings and welcome,

    The staff at R.H. Boyd Publishing Corporation is humbled to present a new quarter of study in God’s Word. We aspire to create biblically sound material that is both inspirational and convicting in hopes to encourage readers to pursue a closer walk with God. For 121 years, we have offered the highest quality of Christian literature, and we are confident that our mission to share God’s Word in new and insightful ways is reflected in this quarter’s study.

    The next three months will focus on our relationship with God and with other believers. The first unit, titled Praise from and for God’s Creation, encourages a spirit of worship in response to God’s majesty. The second unit is titled The Birthing of a New Community. This unit focuses on how to live out the Christian life together as believers. The final unit for this quarter is titled God’s Eternal, Preserving, Renewing Love. This unit will study God’s love for all humanity and touches on how a believer should respond to His love. The overall lesson is that we should love one another just as God has shown love to us.

    We look forward to sharing this quarter’s study with you. We strive to obediently serve the Kingdom of God by offering doctrinally sound curriculum for the African-American community. Having fulfilled this mission for more than a century, we press on in our service to the glory of Jesus Christ, our Savior.

    In His Service,

    Dr. T. B. Boyd III

    President/CEO

    This quarter includes three units that discuss the overall theme of how to live out our relationship with God and with other followers of Christ. It highlights worshiping God, having freedom in Christ, living according to the Spirit, and loving God and one another.

    UNIT I — JANUARY

    The first unit, Praise from and for God’s Creation, includes five lessons from the book of Psalms. It focuses on God’s worthiness to be praised because of His power, love, beauty, and amazing creation.

    UNIT II — FEBRUARY

    Unit II, The Birthing of a New Community, is a study of Paul’s letter to the Galatians. In these four lessons, we find that Paul encouraged the new believers to live according to the Holy Spirit. This study especially focuses on freedom in Christ, which is a gift to those who put their faith in Him. This freedom is offered to both Jews and Gentiles.

    UNIT III — MARCH

    The final unit is titled God’s Eternal, Preserving, Renewing Love. This unit includes four lessons from four different books of the Bible: 1 John, Ephesians, John, and Joel. Each lesson focuses on God’s love for humanity. This study also emphasizes the appropriate response to God’s love—to love and serve God, as well as to love one another.
