About the Course

This course is designed to help participants lead small groups through ten thoughtful approaches to scripture study. The goal is scriptural wisdom shaping both personal and congregational decision-making that shapes a more authentic, biblical faith.

Participants will learn:

  • Useful strategies for leading group Bible study that help congregations respond faithfully to the biblical witness;
  • To inspire conversation about the many ways the Bible can be taught, the purposes and outcomes of each approach, and how biblical wisdom shapes personal and corporate decision-making.

All participants are expected to read Teaching Biblical Faith: Leading Small Group Bible Studies before taking this course.

** Registration is open until Thursday, August 6, 2026, at 11:00 pm. The intent is to allow enough time to register for the training, order and receive the reading materials, and read before the day of class.
