Zechariah: God's Big Plan for struggling Christians
Description
In Zechariah’s day, Israel had returned from exile, but home was certainly not all they had hoped for. Zechariah’s task was to bring comforting words to the struggling people of God.
These six Bible-studies open up Zechariah’s reassuring and revitalising message for God’s discouraged people, including God’s great international building project; His solution to sin; His promised Shepherd-King; His great Day of judgement and salvation. Constantly focusing on what these things mean practically for Christians today, this course aims to help Christians live a life shaped, not by ‘these days’, but by ‘that day’ when God’s big plan comes to glorious fruition.

great study book
the book of zachariah seemed quite daunting with the visions etc. the study questions really got us thinking we have a mix in our group of new christians and old and all have enjoyed it.I found it very helpfull for background history the commmentary on zachariah by barry webb from the bible speaks today.The book itself makes great connections between the new and old testament.Which brought us to understand the prophecies of our Lord Jesus
enjoy 
Excellent study book, need to do the study beforehand
We use this book for our homegroups and it is great. We only cover 1/2 of a study in one evening, so this lasts us for 12 weeks.
Zechariah is a great book to study anyway (don't you just love Zehariah 3), but occasionally someone has not had time to go through the study beforehand and they struggle. The questions are at a good level, not simply regurgitating the passage, but generally not too woolly either. The study always tries to make the passage relevant to the 21st century.
I would have given it a score of 4.5 but when studying chapter 3 (of Zerchariah, study 2) I did need to ask some further questions to really get to the heart of the passage.
All in all an excellent study guide, but I feel it really does need all the group to study the passage beforehand. This may be more to do with the book of Zechariah itself than the study guide.
