Why do a DBS?

How can one build their life or face the storms in life if the foundations are weak. The Discipleship Bible School (DBS) is a life-transforming and life-equipping 3 month residential course that helps you to engage with the scriptures in ways you might have never experienced before. In this 12-week introduction to the Bible, the student will be given an overview of “God’s story” and will discover the purposes of God in it. The student will read the entire Bible, observe the chronology of biblical events, better understand each book in its historical context, understand the harmony between the books, be able to recognize the different genres of literature, and major themes found in these 66 books. The student will learn the foundational truths of Christianity by going directly to the source. So in the DBS we make the Bible the student’s companion for life! And it will be with Spirit and Truth! The student will discover the unified story of the Bible, be discipled by the Bible and will fall in love with the Author of the Bible.
