The necessity of some instruction in the Bible in order to supply the deficiencies which are unavoidable to any system of uniform lessons, is realized in every Sunday school. The International Lessons can only give detached portions of Scripture, and a supplemental lesson must be added to impart a general knowledge of the book as a whole. The full course of study includes five series of lessons, adapted to be used in any denomination. I. The Life of Jesus. II. Studies about the Bible. III. Bible Geography. IV. Bible History. V. History of the Christian Church. Two additional series of special interest to the Methodist Episcopal Church have been prepared, namely: VI. History of the Methodist Episcopal Church. VII. Government of the Methodist Episcopal Church. These lessons are arranged for use as graded studies for scholars ten years of age and upward. Each series contains thirty-six lessons, which can easily be learned in the course of a year, even if the study be suspended during the summer months. Sample Set, 7 numbers, 35 cents.
