The Uniform Series Teaching Guide provides sound biblical materials and practical teaching assistance. It equips teachers to offer an informative, relevant, and inspirational time of Bible study. The Uniform Series is based on the NIV.

The Uniform Teaching Guide offers suggested practical teaching procedures and options and provides illustrative materials for each lesson. The organization of each lesson plan introduces readers to the Scripture text and lesson theme; assists readers to reflect upon and further explore the biblical text; and leads readers toward appropriate life-application of Scripture. The presentation of the teaching resources makes personal Bible study and class preparation a pleasure for the teacher.
