What is DBS?
The Discipleship Bible School (DBS) is a transformative 3-month journey from Genesis to Revelation. DBS brings the Scriptures to life, helping you understand God’s story and your place within it.
Together, we will discover God’s purpose through scripture and engage in meaningful discussions on challenging questions.
You’ll be taught by inspiring teachers and study within a passionate community. Along the way, you will:
- Observe the chronology of biblical events
- Understand each book in its historical context
- See the harmony between the books and why they were written
- Grasp the main ideas of the Bible
- Find practical ways to apply what you learn
By the end of the school, you will have a comprehensive understanding of the Bible’s overall story, the practical know-how to present it effectively, and the skills to study any passage and guide others through it.
‘Encounter God and see His story unfold as you study the Bible.’
Program structure
Through engaging lectures, daily small groups, and personal study, you will experience the Bible in a new and profound way—with a focus on God’s Character, His Nature, and His plan of redemption for creation.
You’ll explore the Bible’s historical context, learn the Inductive Bible Study method, and see how the Old and New Testaments connect as one unified story. Weekly themes cover major biblical periods in chronological order. Examples include: the Pentateuch, Kings, the early prophets, Jesus week, and many more.
Who is DBS for?
DBS is for anyone longing to know God better through His Word and for those who want to know what the Bible truly says. Whether you are a new believer or have been following Jesus for years, DBS offers a fresh, immersive way to encounter God in the Scriptures.
DBS is open to those who are ready to deepen their walk with Him.
