About Streamers

Streamers consists of five "lesson blocks" consisting of two studies each, with Stone-Campbell Connections to be taken home or read in between. The complete 12-week study - including introduction, lessons and wrap up - is suggested, but the material is adaptable to a variety of programming.

Each lesson block begin with an interest page of related scripture and quotations. Suggestions for church-wide involvement are included, with hymns, special events, and ideas for research, additional study, and extension.

Streamers uses positive, user-friendly messages that highlight what really matters in following and serving Christ. Streamers uses humor, analogies and real life situations to catch interest and promote thought and discussion.

Streamers' Bible-based lessons promote thestudy of key Bible scriptures. Emphasis is placed on the New Testament and Christ’s final commandments and prayers.

Streamers provides an overview of essential teachings of Christ, including the Great Commandment, Great Confession, and Great Commission.

The lens of the Stone-Campbell founders is used to focus on beliefs rather than upon the founders themselves. High-interest Connections draw readers into learning Stone-Campbell history, but the details are not treated as essentials for learners to know - a focus that the founders themselves may have preferred.

Streamers' Connections relate stories of Barton W. Stone, Thomas and Alexander Campbell, Walter Scott, Raccoon John Smith, the Plea, Last Will and Testament, Declaration and Address, Cane Ridge, Brush Run, the 1832 union, and much more, including interest boxes showing contributions of the diversity of people within the Stone-Campbell communion, and discussing frequently confused concepts.
