To be a Christian is to be conformed to the image of God’s Son. This thirteen-lesson study traces that transformation — putting off the old self and putting on the new, and growing in the fruit of the Spirit from love, joy, and peace to gentleness, self-control, and humility — until, like Paul, we press on toward the goal. A teacher’s guide accompanies every lesson.

Teachers: Each lesson has a matching Teacher's Guide with discussion notes, suggested answers, and supplementary cross-references.
