Grand Rapids, Mich., Aug. 28, 2018 — Zondervan is pleased to announce the launch of a free six-week Bible study, “Trace the Themes: A Guide to Unpacking the Bible’s Major Motifs” (www.TraceTheThemes.com).

Zondervan has created everything a store could need to create and promote this workshop, including:

Assets can be access at www.bibl.es/biblicaltheology.
Retailers can contact their Zondervan sales representative to order a free event kit, which includes:

- A pack of 25 study guides
- A 7-minute introductory video
- Detailed instructions for hosting a workshop
Based on the new NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible, “Trace the Themes” features a 36-page study guide and six video introductions by Spence Shelton. Shelton is lead pastor of Mercy Church in Charlotte, NC, and previously served for 10 years with J.D. Greear as small group pastor at The Summit Church.
The NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible, which was previously published as the NIV Zondervan Study Bible, is the only study Bible built on biblical theology and is now lighter, thinner, and more readable thanks to Zondervan’s exclusive NIV Comfort Print® typeface.
Full of robust study features that allow readers to unpack God’s story, the NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible allows readers to ponder the individual stories and themes of Scripture while observing how they all fit together in God’s grand biblical narrative. With three articles introducing Biblical theology and 25 articles unpacking key themes of Scripture, the NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible equips readers to follow the progressive unfolding of God’s story. Helpful introductions to books and sections of the Bible combined with 20,000 verse-by-verse study notes will give readers a clearer understanding of every portion of Scripture. The NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible goes on sale September 4, 2018.
