The Bible Course is an eight-session course exploring the Bible through video teaching, group discussion, personal reflection and daily readings. The weekly meetings provided a fantastic way for us all to learn from each other as we connected and explored the Bible together. Here's how some of those who attended found the course…
“Having been through The Bible Course, it has been a great resource in helping us understand how the Bible is structured with context and the timeline provided in the materials were easy to follow. Not only has this helped to equip us in our own learning in understanding the Bible further, but it has also helped to see how the Bible fits into the relevance of today. Overall these past 8 weeks have been enjoyable to be able to come together with everyone on the course to discuss and share our perspectives.”
- Jaz, Lil, Toby and Alex
"The Bible study course included videos, discussion questions and followed a timeline, which was especially helpful to me in understanding the structure of history in the Bible when easing back into reading the Bible. Having a community to tune in with once a week aided in accountability and was an enjoyable experience overall."
- Jeanette
"I think The Bible Course was a good introduction to the gospels in the Bible. I enjoyed the breakout rooms where we could discuss the video and give a reflection of what was meaningful to us."
- Eric
"Although I've been a Christian and attending church for many years, I found The Bible Course an enjoyable opportunity to gather with others and read the Bible together. The weekly videos presented a simple overview with clear illustrations and reminded me of the key themes that you may forget when diving into certain chapters or verses in isolation. While listening to other people's perspectives, I was able to encounter a new way of looking at a verse and reflect on new questions that I would have never thought of myself. Whether you are a "seasoned" Christian or just exploring, it's always a good idea to journey through the Bible as a whole and I'd definitely recommend joining (or hosting) this Bible course!"

"When approaching the Bible, I could easily lose track with so many themes and interweaving stories. The Bible Course provided an enjoyable perspective with overview and context. I have gained confidence in knowing God's message and His plans to come. New and old believers will surely be challenged in faith."
- Simon
“The Bible Course has refreshed my understanding of the whole narrative of God’s master plan for us humans. The course not only provides the oversight of all the books of the Bible but provides reachable and practical examples that I can apply in my day-to-day life. I have been a long standing Christian and would thoroughly recommend this course not only to those young in the faith but also those mature in the faith.”
- Kenton
“At the start of The Bible Course, we were introduced to the fact that the Bible is the world's best selling book (a surprise to many!), written by over 40 authors in many literary styles across a span of 1,500 years. The course has been great in outlining the overarching story of the Bible, showing how all 66 books in both the Old and New Testaments fit seamlessly together to tell the amazing message of God’s redemptive plan for us through Jesus Christ. It was great to listen to the views of others during group discussions which shows how God can speak to us all in different ways. The course has aided my personal reading of the whole Bible and given me a renewed appreciation for the richness of its timeless message.”
- Louise
"The Bible Course has been a great guide to help me navigate the Bible and learn more about God and who He is. The course has given me confidence to read the Bible and tools to use to understand the passages. Sharing with others during discussion time is like a mini study session of the Bible and because passages speak differently to people, it helps widen your own perspective. I would highly recommend the course and say you should go with an open heart and mind so that God can breathe into you the truth."
