Door of Hope – Study Guide

The message of hope is the message of the Bible. In this book by Clarence Sexton, we enter into the marvelous story of God’s enduring love for us as illustrated by the prophet Hosea and his unfaithful wife, Gomer. In bringing us to Himself, the Lord often hedges our way with painful thorns. He will bring us into a valley of overwhelming trouble from which we cannot free ourselves or our loved ones; yet when we turn to Him, we will find a door of hope, not an exit from trouble, but an entrance into His presence.

The Study Guide is to be used by each student in the Sunday School class. It contains helpful summaries of each lesson and provides the student with a place to take notes while the lesson is being taught. Also provided are daily Bible readings and questions to help the student prepare for next week’s lesson.
