Kingdom of Priests Bible Study

"What if, instead of coming to Scripture looking for answers, we came looking for the questions to ask? Instead of coming to Scripture looking for who we are and what we should do, what if we came to Scripture looking for who God is and what He is doing? And what if, instead of coming to Scripture to get direction for our story, we came expecting to understand and locate ourselves in God’s story?”

These are some of the opening lines in Kristi Mast’s Bible study practicum, Kingdom of Priests. Using impactful reading segments and inductive Bible study space, Kingdom of Priests invites the student to glimpse her place in the grand narrative of the Gospel. Tracing the themes of priesthood and temple from Genesis to Revelation, this study reveals the special commission of humanity to serve as priests and mediators — a role that is ultimately fulfilled in Christ, in whose steps we follow.

Kingdom of Priests is comparable to a junior level Biblical literacy course. Each lesson introduces a new Bible study skill, as well as a key passage that leads the student further in exploring the priesthood theme. If you are eager to go deeper in your knowledge of Scripture, gain new tools for study, and be encouraged in your own role as a part of the “royal generation and holy priesthood”, you are certain to be enriched by engaging with the Kingdom of Priests study.
