Summary: The Wisdom Bible Study with Jeff Cavins (from Ascension Press) is an eight-week study of Wisdom literature as it relates to areas of everyday life. Each session focuses on an area of wisdom in life – finance, family, faith and more. Discussion questions challenge groups to spend in-depth time considering past actions and changes they can make going forward.

Parish groups are encouraged to use existing small groups to engage with the study, or to set up virtual small groups, as were used in The Chosen resource. More information about the study can be found at https://ascensionpress.com/collections/wisdom.
