    It seems like the last I heard, you can start a study using a brochure and then move on to a small book with the 6 month plan. Is this still the case and what are the publications used? I thought it might be interesting to go through atleast the brochure, though I don't think I want to do that locally as the intent is obviously not to get baptized. Is there something online or can someone send me a copy? Please email me if you can help with this, thanks.

    Intro,

    The current study publications are the "What Does God Require of Us?"
    brochure and the book "The Knowledge that Leads to Everlasting Life."

    You may use the brochure to start a "doorstep" study, returning each week to do a few paragraphs (usually tied to a particular question) with the householder. The idea is much the same as when one was always urged to leave the h/h with a question and then come back with the answer the next week. Now, however, the h/h has the brochure in his/her little hands. Also, the householder is being counted as a bible study without realizing s/he is HAVING a Bible study. Once the "Require" brochure is completed, one can go on to the "Knowledge" book. Although designed to be completed in 6 months, publishers are now allowed to take longer to complete this study aid if the situation warrants it (i.e., discipleship is not forthcoming as easily as presupposed!).

    It appears I may only have two copies of this brochure left in my files. However, I did e-mail the entire text (in installments) to a study once, so I could send you those if you're desperate! LOL

    I'm only now catching up on the postings to this board after a weekend away and I'm not under my usual sign-on name for e-mailing, which is why I publicly posted this response.

    Let me know if you'd like the text via e-mail.

    Thanks Out, it looks like the brochure is available online at http://www.watchtower.org/library/rq/index.htm so I'll just go there.
