Fellowship Group Handbook ”A training and reference manual for all Redeemer Fellowship Group Leaders”
Gospel Christianity I: Gospel & the Heart, Gospel Christianity II: Gospel & the World, Gospel Christianity IIl: Gospel & Community: are good study materials to grasp the meaning of the Gospel. These are designed with the Gospel Conference to help reorienting people toward the Gospel. In Keller’s words, “you could go to Redeemer for 3-4 years and get exposed to these basic tenets of the Gospel over times. Or we could try to distill them here.” An alternative to this is to work through the massive Galatians sermon series with its accompanied study guide.
Other Small Group Materials [Most of these will accompanied many of Keller's series at Redeemer. For example, the popular series "The Gospel According to God", "The Gospel According to Abraham", "The Gospel According to Jacob" can be accompanied by the Small Group Series "Genesis: What Were We Put in the World to Do?"]
