SBS
The Bible is the definitive guide to knowing and following Jesus Christ. In the School of Biblical Studies you have the opportunity to discover something in every page of the Bible. That’s right. You will read the Bible over 5 times as you study verse by verse through all 66 books of the Bible.
The nine months it takes is not for the faint hearted. You will be challenged, you will work hard and you will understand the Bible better than you ever have before!
This truly is an opportunity that few have and an experience you will never regret!
- Study the Bible for yourself. The main content of the course is not lectures about the Bible, but the Bible itself. The student is not only learning what others are saying about the Bible, but mainly what the Bible itself is saying.
- Study the Bible for yourself. The emphasis is on selfstudy. Lectures consist of only about 25% of work time, the rest is personal, self-study.
- Study the whole Bible for yourself. Maybe the most unusual aspect of the SBS is, that the whole nine months program consists “only” of studying the whole Bible, book by book for oneself.
