Discipleship Bible School12 weeks · One story
Every story has a beginning, a middle, and an end
Come encounter God in His story—from beginning to end.
Watch the Bible come alive through teaching, reading, and discussing the Word. In 12 weeks, you will read through the whole Bible chronologically and learn to see every book within its original world.
God's redemptive plan for humanity begins on the first pages and runs like a red thread through it all. DBS helps you recognize that story and respond to it with your own life.
What is DBS?
Read. Discuss. Study. Respond.
Through lectures, daily small groups, and personal study, you will experience Scripture in a new way. You will explore the main characters and themes, understand different biblical genres, and see how the Old and New Testaments connect.
