Each study is another brushstroke in a compelling portrait of the Master---one that will come alive inside you and make a practical difference in your life. You'll discover the opportunities that await you every day to have an impact for Jesus. But best of all, you'll grow closer to him than ever before.

Interactions is a highly interactive series of twenty six-session small group studies designed to transform participants as they align themselves with the teachings of the Bible and find a new joy that comes from growing closer to God through a caring community. Since its publication in 1996, the Interactions study series has sold over 1.2 million units. These studies are very practical and connect with real-life needs of people. The key to the series is found in the name, Interactions. Much more than a fill-in-the-blank Bible study, Interactions is full of questions that drive each group member to a personal, in-depth understanding of God’s solutions to pressing issues that affect all people. The combination of openended, action-oriented questions, matched with topics that are meeting the needs of people today, makes this series a sought-after resource for small group growth. Developed by Bill Hybels and Kevin Harney, these editions of Interactions have new cover designs. Nine guides have been re-titled.
